Visual Art Group - Regional Meetings

Tairgh Seilebost by Richard Bingham

The Visual Art North (VAN) group has been formed to allow those interested in visual art to meet together in the North of England.

We are currently looking for members views on how we may best serve Visual Art members north of the Midlands, which is geographically a very large area. We want to take what works well for the successful Rollright and South West Groups and adapt it for local needs. We have stared to hold various activities of interest to our members including virtual and physical meet-ups and speakers. We will probably start small and build as we grow.

If you would like to join the group or share what you would like the group to do then then please contact: Mary Crowther ARPS visualartnorth@rps.org

Bonsai Reimagined by Christine Adams ARPS

The Rollright Visual Art Group was formed to benefit photographers in central England, away from major metropolitan areas and the traditonal centres of activity. With its base in the north Cotswolds, amid four or five counties and four RPS regions, the group is open to RPS members and non-members from a wide catchment area. It is not affiliated to any of the regions and does not intend to impinge on the programmes of camera clubs which often favour competitions, but rather offers another location which some of us may find easier to access in order to meet other enthusiasts in an informal and friendly atmosphere. 

If you would be interested in joining the group please contact: Barry Barker FRPS visualartrollright@rps.org

Autumn 2023 by Bridget Davies FRPS

The aim is to provide another platform/opportunity for photographers in the South West Region with an interest in Visual Art to show and share their work with a wider audience. We hope the meetings will be inspirational and educational and will encompass a variety of subjects and approaches.

The meetings will be run quarterly and will include a combination of members’ work and external speakers. They will be open to both RPS members and non-members.

Whether you are an accomplished Visual Art Photographer or just starting to explore this genre, please come and join us and share your work (print/dpi) in a friendly and informal environment.

If you would be interested in joining the group please contact: Marija Lees LRPS visualartsouthwest@rps.org

Under Surveillance by Roger Ford FRPS

The first meeting of the new sub-group, Visual Art London, will be on 28th September 2024 at the Old Diorama Arts Centre NW1 3FE. It is a very convenient location so we hope many members and friends will be able to attend. The meetings will welcome anyone interested in spending time with like-minded photographers.

We look forward to seeing many of you at our first meeting.
