Photography Exhibition - Exploration through the Photographer's Lens
The Peninsula Camera Club (PCC) is excited to announce that 12 member photographers will share their work during the months of June, July, and August at the Burlingame Public Library. You will see all types of photographic art including stunning landscapes, wildlife, flowers, street, and architectural images. The following PCC members will be participating in the exhibition: Sreedhara Alavattam, Melissa Brookmire, Nik Favretto, Bruce Finocchio, Tito Guerrero, Steve Kessler, Marlene Mandelartz-Cohen, Sonny Mencher, Jennifer O'Donnell, Steve Renwick, and Sharon Strochak.
The PCC is a member of the Northern California Council of Camera Clubs, and associated with the Photographic Society of America. Founded in 1950, PCC is the oldest camera club in the Bay area. The club offers photographers from the San Mateo area the opportunity to meet and socialize with other shutterbugs, have their images seen and critiqued by specially trained judges, attend educational classes, and join photographic field trips. All of these activities help photographers, of all levels, to learn new skills and grow as a photographer. Anyone interested in learning more about the club can go to their website at: https://www.peninsulacameraclub.com
