Arnold & District Camera Club

The club is based in the town of Arnold, approximately five miles north of Nottingham city centre. We are a group of amateur photographers and enthusiasts dedicated to promoting photography within our area. Our members range in skill from the beginner to the accomplished amateur.

Meetings are held at Pond Hills Lane Community Centre. A typical club night begins at 7:30 with the meeting starts at 8:00, we have a coffee/tea break and close around 10:00-10:15. The first two visits are free and thereafter a nominal entry fee is charged.

The Club holds, for members, competitions for slides and prints with trophies (shields) awarded to the winners at the end of the year. The competitions are in two sections, one is for novices and the other for more advanced photographers, so everyone has a chance of winning. There is also an annual print competition and a trophy is awarded for the winning print. This competition forms the Annual Exhibition which is usually held in the Arnold Library for six weeks of each year. Members are also eligible to enter external competitions under our affiliation with the Photographic Alliance of Great Britain and the North & East Midlands Photographic Federation.
