IMPORTANT PHOTOGRAPHY CLUB NEWS

Please mark your calendars for Wednesday, May 10th and join us for an in-person meeting at 7pm in the Gallery at the Guild.

The Photography Group had their first meeting on April 12 at 7pm. Dan brought refreshments and was delighted to learn later that this will be supplied going forward. 14 people signed up for the event, and 10 attended. Participation was enthusiastic, and we agreed to meet going forward on the second Wednesday of the month at 7pm.

Plans were made for the next meeting on May 10 to include a socratic style Critique Session. Likewise an outing to Barnegat Light was planned for Sunday morning in June wherein members will make photographs and get to know each other better. The October exhibit was discussed, but no specific plans were made. I need to talk to someone on the board regarding budget, etc.

Please RSVP to Katie in the office so there will be adequate refreshments for the crowd. We hope you can come!

Thank you,
Dan Epstein
Photography Group Coordinator
