Harpenden Photographic Society caters for all abilities – from beginner to the more advanced photographers. We are a lively and growing club of around 90 active members. Our meetings are held from September to June on roughly the first and third Tuesday of each month.
Our varied programme gives members the chance to enjoy and improve their own photography, and to mix and chat with other like-minded enthusiasts.
