Photography club gains more exposure

WELLS-BASED photography club, Focus on Photography, rang in 2023 with an open day to celebrate moving to their new premises at the Portway Annexe.

Members old and new attended the open day for a presentation and discussions about photography, and the chance to vote for the winning shot in the members’ banner competition.

Established in 2018, with the aim of creating a friendly environment for local photographers of all abilities and interests from the local community to meet up and share their knowledge, the group has gone from strength to strength.

The Portway Annexe community arts centre in Portway Avenue is already proving to be the ideal home for the club and it will display a permanent exhibition of members’ best work.

“It was a highly successful open day,” said club admin member Phil Broek.

“We had a big attendance and some lively discussions, and it was a great way to start the new year in our new home.”

It is hoped that setting up in the new location will enable the club to grow their membership and offer more photographyrelated events.
