Flagpole Photographers Camera Club invites the public to join members for the club’s April events, which includes a portrait photography presentation and a monthly competition.

Julia Gerace will lead the first program, planned for Thursday, April 8, at 7:30 pm.

Then on Thursday, April 22, at 7:15 pm, members will participate in the competition theme of “All In The Details,” and the monthly challenge of “Sunrises & Sunsets.”

While the competitions are only open to members, the public is invited to listen to critiques and learn about photography.

Both programs are open to all, free of charge, and will be streamed online. Visit flagpolephotographers.com and click on Events for information on joining the online meetings.

Members compete in a different assignment each month, as well as in Open Color and Open Monochrome. New for this season is the Monthly Challenge category, which is decided at the competition meetings for the following month.

Flagpole Photographers is a local nonprofit group that enables members to share their images and expertise, to learn and grow in their photography, and to enjoy the camaraderie of fellow photographers who come from diverse backgrounds, with photographic skills ranging from novices to professionals.

New members are always welcome and may enter their work in monthly club competitions, participate in workshops, take field trips, get involved in community programs, and take part in annual exhibits. Memberships for the remainder of the 2020-21 season are now free.

Additional club information, meeting dates, including calendar of events, member galleries, and workshop information can be found on the website.
