2026 Photo Of The Month Contest (6:00 – 6:30 PM)
Photo of the Month contest images are hung between 6:00-6:30 prior to the main meeting. This is an opportunity for you to compare your work with that of others, as you perhaps think about entering our outside exhibits. It’s good training, and by compelling you to focus on specific themes you learn and grow in your photography. A Board member will be at the display to answer questions and encourage participation.

New rules at the Williamson County Library dictate we can only book the room 3 months in advance. This will cause a potential change in the date from time to time.
