What the charity exists to do

Bon Accord Camera Club promotes photography education through weekly Thursday evening meetings at our dedicated premises in Aberdeen. We deliver a structured learning and accreditation programme helping members develop technical and artistic skills, from beginners to those pursuing formal qualifications. Activities include expert speaker presentations, practical workshops, competitions, and critique sessions. We organise outings to photogenic locations for hands-on learning. Our premises at 86 Spring Garden provide an accessible facility for members to meet, learn and share their passion for photography. Founded in 1939, we foster an inclusive environment where photographers of all abilities can develop their skills and appreciation of the art.
