Queen's Park Camera Club
Welcome to Queen’s Park Camera Club, Glasgow’s longest established photographic community. The club was founded in 1945, to allow members to indulge their hobby in a friendly and supportive environment, whether they were experienced photographers or complete beginners. That guiding principle is as true today as it was then.
We have our own Club rooms which are situated in Glasgow southside at 54 Millbrae Road, Glasgow G42 9UG, where members get the benefit of access to our fully equiped studio for portraiture or still life work and to our extensive digital computing suite for photo editing and printing. We hold our main weekly meetings at the Club rooms on Thursday evenings from September to May and offer a range of guest speakers, presentations and competitions for members enjoyment. In addition to these facilities, the club also hosts instruction classes and special interest groups, including photographic instruction classes, contemporary photography group, studio photography group, image review and critique group, image editing and post processing classes and printing workshops, where more experienced photographers are on hand to advise and encourage newer or less experienced ones. In addition, various activities that give members the opportunity to get out and about with their cameras take place throughout the year.
The club is a member of the Glasgow & District Photographic Union (GDPU) and affiliated to the Scottish Photographic Federation (SPF), the
Photographic Alliance of Great Britain (PAGB) and the International Federation of Photographic Art (FIAP). We regularly take part in competitions with other clubs at local, national and international levels.
We believe that we are one of the friendliest and most welcoming of clubs and our aim is to try to make the membership experience a fun and sociable one, where everyone can get the most out of this fascinating and challenging pastime.
Our regular Club night is every Thursday at 7:30PM. Visitors are welcome as guests of members. Additional events take place on various other dates throughout the season.
