The Portland Camera Club has welcomed photography enthusiasts of all levels since 1899. Meetings are held on Mondays from September through May at the Woodfords Club, 179 Woodford Street in Portland (click for map). We meet to display and discuss photography in a friendly atmosphere. Visitors are always welcome (only members may submit images in competitions). To learn more about us, visit our About the Club page. For a schedule of club events, visit our Club Calendar.
The Portland Camera Club is a charter member of the Photographic Society of America and the New England Camera Club Council.

Jan 1–31: Shoot Images for the January-themed Image Capture
During the month of January, club members are encouraged to capture three images:
Monday February 6, 7pm: Discussion of Images from January-themed Image Captures
(Zoom) We will view and discuss images taken for the January-themed Image Capture. (The deadline for submitting images is Feb 1st.)
Monday February 13, 7pm: Projected Image Competition
Submission Guidelines:
Monday February 20, 7pm: Discussion Night
(Zoom) Discussion Night: member images are discussed in an open, supportive way. Images are not judged or scored. All members are encouraged to submit one image.
Monday February 27, 7pm: Member Slide Shows (at Woodfords Club)
(In person meeting) Always a popular, entertaining night of short slideshows by PCC members. Family, friends, anyone is welcome to join us to watch the shows. Submissions by members only. Slideshow Guidelines:
Special note from Mike Leonard: members have the option of submitting a show that you made during COVID/Zoom – you can submit that instead of a new show. Your old show will look and sound much better "live" on the big screen at the in person meeting on 2/27.
