Welcome to The Entrance Camera Club Incorporated.

Situated on the Central Coast of NSW, we are a group of enthusiastic photographers comprising people from all backgrounds, both retired & the young. Those who began with Film in the Darkroom or more recently in the age of Digital. Expert award winners with years of experience to beginners who have just purchased their first camera. A passion for photography is our common interest. The club is affiliated with The Federation of Camera Clubs (N.S.W) Inc.

Each Friday morning a group of club members have a photo walk followed by coffee. These outings are are good way to meet members and to discuss photo ideas, techniques and equipment.

~ ABOUT OUR CLUB ~

Established Nov 1959, The Monthly Competitions form the basis of our club. Competitions are held in Digital Image (non Graded) as well as Monochrome & Colour Prints in B Grade, A Grade & Advanced. The prints are displayed around the room prior to the start of the meeting. The critiquing and subsequent discussions with the judges and other members are all great ways to learn and share new photographic techniques which you can then try yourself the next time the opportunity arises. Assisting our new photographers whilst challenging our most experienced members.

InterGen Exhibition opens 5th June, 2021

The Central Coast Council’s InterGen photography initiative was a seven week photography program developed to support a unique inter-generational photographic exchange, and public exhibition between The Entrance Camera Club members and students from Kariong Mountain High School. Benefiting youth and older people, the InterGen initiative used photography and creativity to support our community to share, communicate and celebrate their collective interest in photography.

The photographs from this initiative will be on exhibition in the Community Gallery, Gosford Regional Gallery from Saturday 5 June – Tuesday 15 June 2021. Open daily 9:30am – 4pm.

The exhibition will then be exhibited at The Erina Centre Gallery – Foyer of the Erina Library, North South Road, Erina
Thursday 17 June – Wednesday 14 July 2021.
Monday – Friday 9:30am – 4:30pm, Saturday 9:30am – 12:30pm, Sunday closed
