The Group was (re)formed in 1999 with the help and encouragement of the
Community and Culture Department of Fingal County Council, in particular
"Fingal Arts".
Our aims are to promote photography in the community, to provide a forum for
discussing ideas and exchanging information on the subject of photography, and to use
the medium of photography to forge links with other groups both nationally and
internationally.
We organise talks and workshops on all aspects of photography. We also participate
in photography exhibitions nationally and internationally, and stage exhibitions of
members' work.
Our meetings take place from 8 pm on last Monday of each month (except in the summer),
in the Rugby Club, Skerries, Co. Fingal, North Dublin.
New members are always welcome!
For the future, we hope to increase our membership while providing an atmosphere where we can help each other improve our skills. Ideally, we would like to get our own darkroom and room for meetings, but that will take some time and, of course, money. Meantime, we intend to make the most of whatever opportunities are available, taking photos and having fun!
