The MARS Photography Club was organized in 1985 as one of the original clubs of MARS Associates. The purpose of the club is to provide enjoyment to the members through photographic activities such as competitions, to upgrade technical and creative skills, to share knowledge and experiences, and to develop friendships through common interests. Programs of photographic interest are presented at most meetings by either guests or members. These presentations and theme photo competitions are the primary activities at the meetings. Judges are either club members or invited judges. For more information contact one of the officers.
Meetings are held via ZOOM or at the Columbine Library, Bowles Ave East of Wadsworth
1:00 – 3:30 PM, Second Thursday Monthly except June, July & August
