Welcome to Hawarden Institute Camera Club!
Hawarden Institute Camera Club was founded in 1968
and is a member of the North Wales Photographic
Association (NWPA).
The objective of the club is to promote all aspects
of photography in the area by way of weekly meetings
from September to April. The club meets at Hawarden
Institute (click here for location details) on
Tuesday nights commencing at 7.30pm.
NEW
MEMBERS WELCOME! Whatever your ability, from
absolute beginner to expert. We're a social
bunch, equally happy to compare our holiday snaps or
discuss competition winning techniques!
We hold internal and external photographic
competitions in print, slide and digital formats
with neighbouring clubs, and arrange visits to
places of local interest.
Each year we take part in inter-club
photographic competitions with the Chester, Mold,
Ruthin, Whitby and Wrexham clubs.
We hold practical evenings as well as inviting
outside lecturers to speak on
photographic-related subjects.
