Founded in 1945 and based at its own premises at 10 Lower Camden Street, Dublin 2, the Dublin Camera Club is Ireland’s largest non-profit making club for amateur photographers. It is funded soley by members’ subscriptions and the proceeds of running photographic classes and receives no grants or subsidies.

Every year the club holds an exhibition of members’ photographs. This year’s exhibition, Photo 2004 is currently running at the exhibition centre just inside the magnificently renovated Dublin City Library in Pearse Street and will continue until the 22nd August.
The exhibition contains 284 mounted photographs and 84 colour slides, shown continuously and entry is free.

The Camera Club also runs Beginners’ Classes, which are in great demand. These run from 22nd September to 1st December and again from 19th January to 30th March of next year.

Enquiries about joining the Club or taking Beginners’ or Advanced Darkroom or Digital Classes, can be made at our regular Tuesday night meetings, beginning at 8.00pm, or by ringing 6624464, or by emailing via our website, www.dublincameraclub.ie
