Photography As Art: Next Flagpole Meeting

Flagpole Photographers Club will have its next meeting on Thursday, February 15, at Cyrenius H. Booth Library, 25 Main Street in Newtown. The meeting will begin at 7:30 pm.

This month’s speaker will be Don Bruen, who will give a program on “Photography As Art.”

After the program Mr Bruen will judge this month’s competition, “Macro (Close-Up) Prints.”

Guests are always welcome to attend at no charge. Competitions are open to members only.

Flagpole Photographers is an organization through which photographers can learn more about photography during monthly meetings, primarily through presentations by guest speakers. Meetings are held the third Thursday of the month, usually in the meeting room of Newtown’s public library.

Members may also exhibit their own work during private presentations at meetings, enter their work in the monthly club competitions, take field trips, become involved in community programs, and take part in an annual club exhibition.

Membership is $20 per person each year, although high school students can join free of charge. Membership is open to anyone with an interest in photography, regardless of level of experience.
