Launch of Irish Impressions - Photographs by Members of the Schenectady Photographic Society

This exhibit contains thirty images of Irish-Americans in the Capital District as well as various images taken in Ireland and Northern Ireland. It is scheduled to run from Friday, August 2 through Sunday, September 29.

Founded in 1931, the Schenectady Photographic Society offers programs and activities for photographers from throughout the Capital District.

Their Wednesday night meetings offer an assortment of programs. Four program areas - print, projected image, photo essay, and mentoring - help members expand their photographic vision and creativity through competitions, peer critiques, and roundtable discussions. Guest speakers regularly share their work and offer insight into their creative image making process. Occasional field trips, photo shoots, and workshops offer fun hands-on instruction and image making opportunities. For more information, including the meeting schedule, visit them online at www.spsphoto.org
