Canmore is home to many nationally and internationally recognized artists, artisans and photographers. The Canmore Camera Club was founded in 2003 and now has an annual membership that varies from 25 to 30 members. The club meets monthly to promote photography, share information and instruct members on technology and concepts to assist in making better photographs. At each monthly meeting a slideshow of members pictures relating to a particular theme is shown. Many of the pictures are examined after the show and discussed on the merits of the pictures
