About us
Welcome to CCR Meetup!
We are happy you have joined our MeetUp Group to enjoy the many activities and educational opportunities we offer. CCR Meetup is sponsored by the Camera Club of Richmond (Virginia).
The Camera Club of Richmond was founded in 1932 to promote the art of photography in central Virginia. Our vision is to promote excellence in photography; inspiring our members to reveal the world around us, preserve memories and create works of art. The Camera Club of Richmond’s mission is to empower our members to learn and grow their photographic craft through education, activities, exhibits, critiques, mentoring, and competitions.
Our membership has a wide range of experience and skill levels in film, digital, mirrorless, and cell phone cameras. In addition, members have the opportunity to display their work in various galleries throughout the Richmond area, have their work evaluated several times a year at our scheduled Evaluation Meetings, and participate in an End-of-Year Competition and Awards Presentation.
CCR welcomes photographers of all experience levels to share their passion for photography. Please be our guest at one of our monthly meetings:

Let's Visit the Valentine!
The Valentine, 1015 East Clay Street, Richmond, VA, US... more specifically, John Henley's photography exhibit, "West by Water: Richmond's James River and Kanawha Canal."
"Journey with Richmond photographer John Henley and writer Harry Kollatz, Jr. along the city’s historic James River & Kanawha Canal, which even after two centuries, remains to some, resident and visitor alike, elusive and mysterious."John has been a Presenter and Evaluator/Judge for CCR in the past. Here is a link to his Facebook page: John Henley Facebook.
Meet in the lobby of The Valentine, and we'll explore the exhibit - and maybe a few other gems that The Valentine has to offer. The Valentine does not charge admission on Thursdays, but we're sure they would love a donation if you were so inclined.
