The Sunnyvale
Photographic Club is a non-profit organization, partnering with the City
of Sunnyvale, Department of Parks and Recreation (formerly a
co-sponsored club).
Its purpose is to provide amateur
and professional photographers educational and social opportunities that
increase the enjoyment of photography.
The club meets at 7:30 PM
on the second (2nd) and fourth (4th) Mondays of each month at the
Heritage Center building, Sunnyvale Community Center, 550 Remington
Drive, Sunnyvale, CA. Directions to the club meeting
are available, along with our calendar of events.
Visitors are welcome. Refreshments are usually provided.
First meeting of the month (2nd
Monday):
- A competition of either slides or prints is held.
Second meeting of the month (4th Monday):
- A program is held
which may consist of slide presentations, demonstrations, or hands-on experiences
designed to help club members learn tips and techniques from accomplished

Club competitions are critiqued by
experienced guest judges, and then the winning prints or slides are
judged at the next MPPA meeting for higher level competition. The
MPPA consists of four local clubs - Los Altos Camera Club, Palo Alto
Camera Club, Millbrae Camera Club, and Sunnyvale Photo Club. MPPA holds
its competitions on the third (3rd) Tuesday of the month at Palo Alto Art Center, 1313 Newell Rd.,
starting at 7:30 PM. By arriving early at 7:00 PM, one "walk-on" entry
(i.e. an entry not having won at the club level) may be
registered in person by each club member.
