VAPS Convention – Brighton Grammar School May 25-26
It is time to register for the VAPS convention. VAPS is the Victorian Association of Photographic Societies and we are one of the affiliated clubs. Each year they run a convention, and this year it is close to home, just in Brighton. This is a great chance to meet people from other clubs and hear about what is happening, as well as listen to some great speakers. They also have some workshops/activities on Saturday afternoon which are well worth attending and Ian Rolfe is running some photo shoots/photo walks on Friday 6pm and Sunday and Monday mornings (an early start) and they have an exhibition of the inter-club competition entries including prints, digital images and audio-visuals.
There is also a dinner on the Saturday night if people are interested in getting a table together.
Details below and we’ll also discuss on Monday night.
Registration deadline is 21st April.
