Camden Rep introduces girls of color between the ages of 14 and 18 to behind-the-scenes careers in theater and film with the company’s first Hammer and Nails Conference on Monday, Feb. 3 at Creative Arts High School, located on the campus of Camden High. Bringing together industry professionals and mentors with young, future creatives for a day of inspiration, learning and empowerment, the conference aims to create a career pipeline to the design, technical and production sides of theater and film. The three-pronged event will include a panel discussion featuring industry professionals Toni Barton (production designer for film and TV), Pamela Hobson (tour manager and lighting designer), Kathy A. Perkins (lighting designer and professor emerita of Africa/African Diaspora theater) and Marci Rodgers (award-winning costume designer); a 45-minute hands-on session during which attendees can gain practical experience in key areas of the design and production process; and a Meet-and-Greet Lunch, offering the girls a unique opportunity to connect with the panelists and mentors, gaining inspiration and guidance for their own creative paths.
