Competitions are among the most popular activities at camera clubs, and with the help of a competent judge, these events can be educational not only for the competitors but also for the audience.

In past years NVACC offered seminars to train interested individuals in becoming camera club judges and has maintained on its website a list of judges who successfully completed previous NVACC training sessions.

More recently, NVACC has received frequent requests to offer another series of Seminars on Camera Club Judging – – not just for those interested in becoming camera club judges, but also for those wanting to know more about the nuances and subtleties of camera club competitions who do not want to become a judge.

As a result, several five hour Seminars on Camera Club Judging will be held in the fall of 2012 from 1:00pm to 6:00pm at the Joseph Miller Center for the Photographic Arts, 4811 Catharpin Road, Gainesville, VA 20155. Phone: 703-754-7598, email: furnfoto@AOL.com.

The seminar dates are:

Judging Seminar I Saturday October 20, 2012.
Judging Seminar II Saturday October 27, 2012
Judging Seminar III Saturday November 10, 2012
Judging Seminar IV Saturday December 1, 2012.

Since attendance will be limited to 12 participants per session to allow for attendee participation, it is important to register promptly to assure a place in the seminar of your choice.

To register please send a check for $50 payable to JM CENTER, 4811 Catharpin Road, Gainesville, VA 20155 and indicate your preferred seminar date on the check. Provide an email address for confirmation of your reservation to be sent back to you.
