Historic
The Camera Club of New York
Since 1884
The Camera Club of New York was founded in 1884 as a photography club. Though the Club was created by well-to-do "gentlemen" photography enthusiasts seeking a refuge from the mass popularization of the medium in the 1880s, it accepted its first woman as a member, Miss Elizabeth A. Slade, in 1887, only four years after its inception, and later came to accept new ideas and new approaches to the medium.
Over the years the Club helped launch revolutionary new approaches to photography and nurture many photographers who later became giants in the field.
