We had a busy day yesterday! In case you missed it, here are the Cliff Notes. Grab a cup of coffee for this update:

We started with a board meeting, followed by our annual members meeting. We shared all kinds of great food (well, don't miss it next time!)

There was the President's report. Ian Raymond recapped the previous year, followed by the Treasurer's report. Dan Gingras gave us an update.

We welcomed two new members, Steve Lewis, and John Fitzgerald.

Next we voted in a new board member, Becky Field, as Maundy Mitchell finished a 3-year term.

Claudia Rippee, Maundy Mitchell, and Alicia Bergeron shared more about our new name (NH Center for Photography) and branding. We're rolling that out now. Our new website should be ready at the end of the summer!

Dan Derby talked about our fantastic zoom presentations, most of which are held during the winter, but they're all recorded for you to enjoy.

Gary Tomkins gave us an update on our historic architecture project. We need more photos! Check in with him if you'd like to contribute. We'll be finishing up early fall, and have an exhibit in the late fall.

Gary Samson introduced our next group project--The NH Artist Portrait Project. It starts now!

We talked about our upcoming events - these will be posted online--including our first annual NHCP Photo Flea Market (July 20 at Kimball Jenkins)

Ian Raymond will give a cyanotype demonstration at an exhibit at the Sandwich Historical Society on June 29. This is part of a large celebration and exhibit of photography.

NH Center for Photography will also have a table at the League of NH Crafts Fair on August 11.

We talked about our upcoming "Photo Slam," which is for all members to share in a quick-moving slideshow of their work, one after another. More on that soon.

After the meeting, some of the members had a wonderful time photographing each other around the mansion and grounds.
