Welcome
to the Fort Greene Photography Organization
The Fort Greene Photography Organization was started on January 14th,
2001.
The organization is open to anyone who has an interest in the art of
photography.
The Fort Greene Photography Organization is not a class, nor is it a
camera club.
It is an informal environment of creative photographers sharing their
knowledge of
photography and learning from others. (read
the full statement here)
"Our mission is to advance public interest in photography, expose
the public to the
works of emerging photographers through exhibitions and other events,
and to provide
emerging photographers with a forum to expose their work to the public."
FGPO is a membership organization that meets on the 2nd and 4th Saturday
of each
month (except July, August, November and December when we meet once
a month)
from 3:15pm-5:15pm. Meetings consist of photo-sharing and critiques,
event/exhibition planning, support sessions, and member slide presentations.If
you would like to join us
for a meeting send an email from the contact page and someone will get
back to you where
we will be meeting!
Lacy Austin, Pavan Carter, Phillipe Dollo, Tom Govia, Bill Hilton, Clay

The membership fee is $50.00 annually to be paid at the beginning of
each calendar year or at membership inception. This fee is to pay for
supplies, copies, stationery, etc. A report of all expenditures will
be given to each member at the end of the calendar year. To be considered
a member in "good standing", dues must be met. New members
can attend two meetings prior to paying dues. You can access the online
