New to Denver Colorado

[graymatterimages]

Hello, I've recently relocated to the Denver area and am interested in meeting other like minded photogs either thru clubs or group shoots. Also I would be interested in any photo related job openings.
P.S. I visited the Camera Obscura Gallery the other day...way cool!!

While I don't live in Colorado any longer, I second your experience of Camera Obscura Gallery. Is Hal Gould still around?

There are others here who live in the Denver area. I am sure they will chime in.

Welcome aboard.

Hmm, I'm surprised Paul Sorensen hasn't responded yet . . . check out the Denver Darkroom

I guess I am being a slacker as per usual Gabe. And with all the things I do for you...

Welcome! I manage a photography school and community darkroom in Denver. Gabe is one of our volunteers and a member of our board of trustees. We certainly also serve as a community of photographers, but not exactly the same as a photo club or the like since our primary business is teaching formal classes. We hosted a get together of APUG folks a while back and are certainly happy to do so again, if there is interest.

Yes, the Camera Obscura gallery is amazing. Hal is still running it from what I know.

Oh, and one more thing, we will be having a gallery show at Qube opening on Friday September 1st at 6pm. Qube is at 1247 Santa Fe in Denver and the opening will be a part of the Santa Fe Artwalk. A bunch of our folks will be there and are in the exhibit, including Gabe, who got three pieces in. (A word of warning for the sensitive: Some images in the exhibit are digital)

Thanks Guys,

It's good to see an active community. I'll definitely stop by Qube friday night for the art walk. I was on Santa Fe yesterday checking out the local arts district scene.

It will be three to four months before I am able to get my darkroom up and running so its good to see some possibilities, if I get into a pinch and need darkroom time.

Dave, I also participate is numerous festivals. Looks like there is a decent number of them in the Denver and surrounding areas.

Thanks again for the replies and I look forward to meeting all of you.

Cheers,
Jeff

An art community in the 1200 block of Santa Fe??? My, things have changed since I lived there. I lived in and around Denver for 40 odd years. It was quite a place in the '50s.

Hello and welcome to the denver area Jeff. I'm up in the northern metro area close to Boulder. Maybe we can get another little get together going. Who knows.

The 1200 block is the north end of the art walk, it is mostly in the area from 6th to 10th. It has changed a great deal since I moved here about 17 years ago, I can only imagine how much it has changed in 40 years.
