ABOUT US
The Sandhills Photography Club was started in 1983 to provide a means of improving members' photographic skills and technical knowledge, for the exchange of information, and, by club activity, to develop membership potential and public interest in the art of photography.

MEETINGS
The Club meets the second Monday of each month, at 7:00 PM at Christ Fellowship Church on Midland Road at Pee Dee. Meetings alternate between programs, competitions, and field-trip presentations. All meetings conclude with a social time with refreshments. Workshops and field trips round out our activities. Guests are always welcome - Google Directions.

MEMBERSHIP
Our membership numbers around 100 and we have annual membership rates designed for couples, singles and students. Check out one of our meetings to see if you wish to join. Or use this membership form to sign up right now.

 

NEWSLETTER
InFocus, our monthly newsletter, keeps you up-to-date with the club's activities. Everyone contributes and it is a mine of information covering upcoming competitions, workshops, exhibitions and field trips, as well as tips and tricks, items for sales and membership news.

COMPETITIONS
Competitions are held every other month from February to November. Given recent trends, most are digital, but we still have a couple of print competitions every year. Winners, runners up, honorable mentions and other competition photos are available to view on-line.

WORKSHOPS
We offer both paid and free workshops for our members. From understanding and mastering Photoshop and Photoshop Elements, using imaging presentations techniques, picture framing to how to shoot good and creative photos using a variety of techniques and intensive hands-on teaching from recognized experts. You can be sure to always be learning at SPC.

 

EXHIBITIONS
Members have the opportunity to exhibit their pictures regularly throughout the year. These run from showing work at local galleries to placing images at local offices and organizations in the Sandhills area.

FIELD TRIPS
Twice a year, in the Spring and Fall, SPC members arrange field trips to locations within easy reach of the Pinehurst/Southern Pines area. There will also be Day Trips around the local area. Information about these trips will be in the monthly newsletters.

LIBRARY
We have an impressive and growing library of magazines, books and DVDs from novice to expert level. You can order these on-line for pick up at the next scheduled meeting.

MEMBER GALLERIES - (Coming Soon!)
This is a separate database driven site using Coppermine software where members can create and maintain galleries of their work.
