Established in 1886, the Syracuse Camera Club is one of the oldest photography organizations in the United States. The first members were all men, mostly in professional fields, interested in what was then a relatively new art form. Today, our members are men and women of all ages and from all walks of life.
We are avid amateur and semi-professional photographers who connect to promote the enjoyment and mastery of the art and craft of photography. We hold monthly workshops, competitions, and member forums, as well as other ad hoc events where we share and learn from each other, as well as from top experts in the field.
September through June, on the first Wednesday of the month, we have a scheduled workshop. Our workshops include presentations by renowned national speakers as well as local professional photographers and educators.
September through May on the third Wednesday of the month and on the first Wednesday of June, the club prides itself on monthly competitions in which members' digital images are judged by national and local photography professionals. Four months of the club year are themed competitions while the rest are open to any subject. The themed competition topics and definitions are posted on the event calendar under the respective monthly competition entries.
On the last Wednesday of most months, we try to hold a Member Forum. These are more informal gatherings, with topics ranging from image reviews and critiques to members discussing a special technique or sharing their portfolio or an image show.
The Club holds its monthly meetings online via Zoom video conferencing. Non-members are encouraged to join us for a virtual meeting to get a sense of the Club and what we have to offer.
Membership in the Syracuse Camera Club is open to everyone who loves photography, from beginners to professionals to those who just enjoy seeing exciting images.
This ARTICLE on PetaPixel, the photography website, describes why you should join a camera club.
