Join us in the celebration of Photo Month Nevada County! We will be highlighting fine art photography and the importance of photographs in our lives during March and April. Nevada County Camera Club in partnership with the Center for the Arts, Courtyard Suites and the Nevada County Arts Council is hosting two photo exhibits and four photo walks. Photography Month was initiated by Viewpoint Gallery in Sacramento and is being celebrated in 5 northern California counties in 2022.
- March 4 - April 16 “Celebrate Photography - The BEST of Nevada County Camera Club” exhibit at the Granucci Gallery at The Center for the Arts, Grass Valley. Opening Reception - Friday, March 4 - 5:00 pm
This exhibit features the BEST photos of Nevada County Camera Club members - from impressionistic to realistic; black and white to full color - displaying a range of styles indicative of the creativity of Nevada County.
- April 2 - April 30 “CREATE! Gold Country on Camera” exhibit at the Courtyard Suites in Grass Valley. Opening Reception - Saturday, April 2 - 6:00 - 8:00pm
Designed to encourage increased creativity for members, Gold Country On Camera is an annual exhibit sponsored by the Nevada County Camera Club. Each year, members draw a location out of a hat and take photos of their site during the same time period. This exhibit is fun not only for the photographers but the viewers as well as the photographers often incorporate fantasy, 3D, or other special effects in their finished work.
