NEW GALLERY IN TOWN!
The Creative Photographers’ Guild Inc. was established by a small group of photographers who saw a need for an organization, dedicated to photography, which went beyond the scope of the traditional camera club. Their first meeting was held in April of 2005. The Guild’s primary mission is to conduct a not-for-profit cooperative photographic gallery dedicated to the encouragement of the artistic development of photographers, to serve both its members and the public by providing a venue for public exhibit, giving critiques, lectures, demonstrations, seminars, instructions and sharing experiences.
Photography is by itself a powerful, modern, universal, visual language through which we convey information, ideas and every human emotion. The Guild’s Center for Photography located at Richmond Terrace and Tysens Lane (Right outside of Snug Harbor Cultural Center) will provide the community of Staten Island a place to share in all things photography.
Through exhibits, seminars, workshops and outreach programs, CPG helps people both see and feel the world around them in new, fresh and exciting ways...
