The Northeast Texas Photography Club will exhibit a collection of work in the foyer of the Whatley Center for the Performing Arts at Northeast Texas Community College November 9 through December 3. The display will include photography in a variety of styles, all shot by local members. An artist reception will be held Thursday, Nov. 12 at 2:30 p.m. in the Whatley Center foyer.
The Northeast Texas Photography Club was founded about six years ago by a group of local photographers. The club meets the second Tuesday of each month on the main NTCC campus in room BT 103 from 7-9 p.m. Each month the club issues a photography challenge to members and a contest is held at meetings. In addition to presentations from guest photographers, members also take field trips to places of photographic interest - such as Caddo Lake, the rose gardens in Tyler and various state parks. The club welcomes members ages 14 and up from all level of experience, from beginners to professionals. Those interested in joining the Northeast Texas Photography Club should contact Linda Cortelyou at 903-279-2300 or by e-mail at†linda.cortelyou@gmail.com.
The Whatley Center exhibit is free and open to the public. Gallery hours are Monday through Thursday from 9 a.m. to 4 p.m. and Friday from 9 a.m. to noon. Please call ahead to 903-434-8181 to ensure the gallery is open.
