We would like to extend our sincere thanks to Minister Dara Calleary for officially opening our Members’ Exhibition on Friday evening at the library in Ballina.

A huge congratulations to all of our members on the incredible achievement of bringing this exhibition together — your dedication and talent have truly brought it to life.

It is a real privilege to be part of such a supportive and welcoming group. The friendships within our club make it more than just a shared interest — it’s a genuine community of photographers.

If you’re interested in visiting, the exhibition is open to the public during library opening hours until the end of April. Be sure to drop in — more information is available at the exhibition itself.

We hope to see you there!
