Nevada County Camera Club’s exhibit “Gold Country on Camera – A Photo Challenge” will be on display at the Courtyard Suites in Grass Valley in April to celebrate Photography Month.   This exhibit includes photographs of western Nevada County that were taken during two weeks in February. 

“The Gold Country on Camera challenge and exhibit celebrates creativity – pushing photographers beyond the ordinary – to experiment with new camera techniques, unusual viewpoints and different lighting conditions and then finishing the works with imaginative post processing and presentation.  

This year’s fierce winter storms added both challenges and inspiration, with rain and snow transforming the landscape.  The resulting exhibit is playful and lively featuring drone imagery, 3-D works, snowy scenes and more,” said Mike Oitzman, President of the Nevada County Camera Club.  

Photographs for this exhibit will be displayed at the Courtyard Suites, 210 N Auburn St in Grass Valley during their open hours from 6:00 am – 10:00 pm from April 4 – April 30.  The opening reception will be on Saturday, April 4 from 6:30 – 8:00 pm.   The public is invited. 

“It is definitely our pleasure to host the Nevada County Camera Club during Photography Month again at the Courtyard Suites.  Supporting local artists is one of our goals and helps expand our guests’ experiences – giving them a chance to take home a piece of art from the local talented camera club!  Please join us as we celebrate Gold Country on Camera at our opening reception,” said Kyra Gates from the Grass Valley Courtyard Suites.

Photography Month, initiated by Viewpoint Photographic Art Center, is being celebrated in northern California in April to recognize the importance of photography by sharing a moment of beauty, a visual story, or a snapshot in time and history.
