A-Z of LECTURES and CATEGORIES
Leamington Spa Photographic Society
'According to County Records, Leamington Amateur Photographic Society, formed in 1887, was the town’s earliest photographic society. Its duration is unknown but notable members included Henry Peach Robertson (1830-1901) and Robert Oswold Milne (1853-1927). The later Leamington and District Photographic Society existed from 1921 until 1947. Meeting in a basement on the Upper Parade, they were supported by well known national photographer Walden Hammond FRPS FRSA who held a Portrait Exhibition at Victoria Colonnade in 1938.
'In 1947, Leamington and District Photographic Society joined Lockheed Camera Club to become Lockheed and Leamington Photographic Society. Formed in 1945, the Lockheed Camera Club was part of Lockheed’s Sports and Social Club, who provided their clubroom and a darkroom. When Lockheed became Automotive Products in 1973, the society was renamed the AP and Leamington Camera Club. It became AP and Leamington Photographic Society in 1980.
Automotive Products experienced considerable change and in 1988 the society became independent, as Leamington Spa Photographic Society. New premises were found at Leamington Oddfellows Friendly Society. Here, in comfortable surroundings, we meet every Tuesday evening from late September until May.'
