Monday 6th September will be the start of the Folkestone Camera Club new season, which is always a good evening seeing our friends, old and new, and we also hope to be welcoming new members.

If you are interested in photography, we are sure to have something to interest you. It is a fun and also rewarding hobby, which is often even better when sharing it with friends.

The first evening will be our ‘Welcome Evening’ which will be an opportunity to find out about our activities including lectures, competitions, exhibitions, travelogues, battles, outings, workshops, practical evenings which include Photoshop and portraiture, audio visual etc. So if you are interested in Photography, be it any level of experience or age, do come along for this informal evening, where our members will be happy to answer any questions you may have..

Our club has become very successful, and with the introduction of Digital, has grown in number and success stories, both for the club and individuals. Although we hear of some other Camera Clubs folding or struggling to keep up with membership, we have increased ours by many in recent years – mainly due to the digital technology.

Many of our members photographs, can be seen on our website at www.folkestonecameraclub.co.uk

Our programme covers many aspects of photography and we try to suit everyone's taste and ability Our motto is ‘We don’t Teach, But You Learn’. The Programme can be viewed on our website.

Our meetings are held in St. Georges Church, Audley Road (on the corner of Shorncliffe Road, opposite West Station), Folkestone every Monday September to May at 7.30 p.m. Further information can be found on our website or telephone Jenny Barraclough (Press Officer) 01303 245399.
