Welcome to Assabet Valley Camera Club

Assabet Valley Camera Club, established in 1985 as a Hudson-based photography organization, meets the 1st. and 3rd. Wednesday of the month from September through May. The first meeting of the month generally features a program designed to instruct and/or to entertain camera enthusiasts.  During the second monthly meeting, member digital image competitions are judged and critiqued by qualified individuals. 

Due to Covid-19 all AVCC meetings are currently being held online. Normally, AVCC meetings take place in the Great Room at the Hudson Senior Center, 29 Church Street, Hudson, and officially begin at 7:30 PM. (Online meetings start at 7:00.)  

AVCC welcomes anyone interested in learning more about photography as a visual art and its practical application as a science.  Members benefit from the hands-on experiences, from the knowledge presented in programs, and from having their work critiqued.

Assabet Valley Camera Club, a member of both the New England Camera Club Council and the Photographic Society of America, also participates in interclub competitions on regional, national and international levels.  Members of various ages with a diversity of experience currently hail from over fifteen different communities in the surrounding area.

Anyone interested in photography and expanding their pictorial skills is welcome to attend a club meeting.

Upcoming Virtual Meetings on Zoom 

February 1st - Color, Contrast, Lighting, and Composition (or, what are you looking at?)

Photography is much more than pointing your camera at a scene and tripping the shutter. Weighing the assorted components within the frame of the viewfinder is important as it impacts the resulting image, and subsequently the viewer. Unlike painters who begin their art with a clean canvas, photographers begin with a canvas fully loaded. Recognizing how to evaluate and isolate the various graphical elements from this filled canvas enables the photographer to create an impactful, visual story. 

Due to Covid 19 all AVCC meetings are currently being held online. If you are interested in attending this program, contact AVCC at info@assabetvalleycc.com a few days prior to the meeting to request a link to the event. The club’s Zoom room opens at 7pm with a brief business meeting at 7:15pm. The member presentations will begin at 7:30pm.
