A stunning array of photographic works captured by talented locals is set to go on public display.
The Howick Photographic Society, in conjunction with the Auckland Festival of Photography, is proud to showcase a large selection of images by its award-winning and emerging photographers.
The society has been active in east Auckland since being formed in 1956 and seeks to foster the love and teaching of photography.
It’s been operating for almost 70 years and caters for all types of photographers from absolute beginners to the more experienced.
A range of activities are provided including competitions, workshops, speakers and outings. It welcomes new members and offers teaching programs to help them along their photographic journey.
Meetings are held in-person and online by Zoom on the first, third and fourth Mondays of each month from February to November in the basement of the Howick Bridge Club, Howick Leisure Centre, 563 Pakuranga Road.
It’s a friendly, social group with the more experienced members keen to help and mentor others.
