Established in 1943, the Des Moines Camera Club has been dedicated to the pursuit of photographic excellence for eighty years! The Club provides activities for those who wish to share, learn, or improve their photographic skills.

Our membership represents all levels of photography, from beginner to advanced, and amateur to professional. Our goal is to increase our knowledge of photography and inspire one another in our photographic activities. Programs, workshops and field trips are held regularly on a wide variety of subject matter. Photography competitions are held monthly.

Our Club meets the first TWO Tuesdays of every month from September through May, except for December where we meet just the first Tuesday. The first meeting of the month is devoted to instruction or guest speakers, while the second is competition night and workshops. Check the Announcements page for upcoming dates. Visitors are always welcome at all meetings - check the Meeting Information page for more information and our meeting location. Make sure to connect with us on Facebook as well.
