Saturday, May 19th at 11AM - APG Gallery
Please plan on attending our annual membership meeting to show your support and enthusiasm for the group. Board Members will give updates on the state of the organization, including upcoming exhibits and events, current finances, and volunteer opportunities. AND, there will be previews, discounts and freebies...
- Be the first to preview APG's NEW website! We value our members' input, so we'd love to hear your questions and suggestions.
- Would you like to save money on framing? We thought so! Get the details from our newest partner, Binders Art Supply, who is now offering a 40% discount on framing to current APG members. In addition, with Binders' Give Back Program, APG will receive up to 5% of all sales from registered APG members, which enables us to offer more events and opportunities throughout the year.
- Are you a product junkie? Or maybe you just need a little extra inspiration? If so, Binders will also be on hand to show you some of their latest photo-related products!
- And yet another discount! Receive new information about registering for Showcase Photo & Video discounts for APG members.
- Door prizes will be provided by APG, Binders, Digital Arts Studio and Showcase!
We've got the food and drink covered too, so sleep in a little before heading to the gallery! See you there...

SPEAKING OF PHOTOGRAPHY WITH PHILIP GROSSMAN
CHERNOBYL: ZONE OF EXCLUSION
Wednesday, June 20th, 7:30PM
Photographer Philip Grossman shares his photos and experiences from his recent journey to the Chernobyl Nuclear Complex, the site of the world's worst nuclear accident. During Philip's four day excursion into the Zone of Exclusion, he was able to gain unfettered access to 30 separate locations, including an abandoned children's summer camp, vehicle graveyards, kindergartens and schools, the interior of the never completed reactors 5 and 6, as well as extremely rare access to the control room of reactor 4, the site of the nuclear catastrophe.
