ABOUT UWPG: UWPG is comprised of University of Washington (Seattle, WA) staff, students, faculty and friends, most of whom create in photography while working at something else. From traditional, alternative, mixed, and digital media, expertise ranges from beginner to professional. UWPG creates a collegial environment to further individual and group projects.
All interested photographers are welcome.
Please
contact Deborah
Hughes or Kari Berger for more information or to be added to the UWPG listserv. Please write a line about who you are, your photographic interest and how you learned about UWPG.
Weekly Meetings: Informal Tuesday get-togethers where much of the action and planning happens for exhibits, speakers, trips, monthly films; where strategies percolate, keeping the adventure of photography bristling and alive.
Monthly Meetings: Last Tuesday of the month, more organized usually with speakers, critique sessions, presentations, announcements of events and so on. Treats are welcome. Ideas and organizational efforts are welcome too.
Goals: To keep learning, dig deeper and make better work; to create projects, exhibit, climb out of artistic ruts, hone vision, and have a great time!

Activities Include:
- Critiques: both formal and informal, work reviews
- Field trips: to local galleries, museums, talks, interesting locations.
- Photographic Scavenger Hunt: a one-day marathon event culminating in a potluck dinner, examination of the day's photo treasures, and prizes. Occurs on an occasional basis.
