Thanks to Ann Sweeney for her informative and comprehensive judging of the print competition for the Sweeney Cup, themed "Life in Galway". Congratulations to all the winners - pictures attached and congratulations to Patricia Donohue winner of the Sweeney Cup two years running.

We have two more competitions left in this Season, Connemara print and digital Macro/Closeup - go to programme in header for further details.

Next Thursday we have Sarah Deane, a local published photographer, with start time of 7.30pm. Sarah Deane is an Irish visual artist based in County Galway, specialising in photography, collage, and archival materials to explore memory, place, and the transformation of overlooked histories. Her practice reconstructs narratives through slow, process-led techniques—such as lumen prints—often focusing on the bog landscape and the lived experiences of women.  Click on link to see information on Sarah. https://www.instagram.com/deanesphoto/?hl=en

7.30pm will be our start time from here on in, which enables us to have time at the end for questions and answers.
