Wellington Photographic Society - Annual Exhibition 2026

Come check out some stunning shots and meet fellow photo lovers at the Wellington Photographic Society’s annual get-together! The Wellington Photographic Society’s annual exhibition is a highlight of our year, bringing together the creative work of our members and sharing it with the wider public. For us, it’s not just a chance to hang photographs on the wall – it’s an opportunity to celebrate the art of photography, showcase the talent within our community, and invite others to discover what makes photography such an inspiring and accessible pursuit. This year’s exhibition offers a diverse collection of images captured both close to home and further afield. You’ll see photographs from all around the world – landscapes, portraits, street scenes, and wildlife – but the heart of the exhibition is firmly rooted in Wellington. Our members have drawn inspiration from the beauty and variety of our own backyard: dramatic coastlines, majestic mountains, vibrant cities, and the small, fleeting details that make life unique. We are also proud to display images created during our group meet-ups, workshops, and learning sessions. These gatherings are at the heart of what we do as a society, offering members the chance to connect, experiment, and grow their photographic skills in a supportive and friendly environment. The exhibition is therefore more than just a showcase of individual work – it’s a reflection of the shared learning, encouragement, and passion that our community thrives on. Visitors can expect to see a wide range of styles and techniques, from classic black-and-white to bold digital artistry. Whether you are a seasoned photographer, someone with a casual interest in the medium, or simply curious to see the world through a different lens, there will be something here to inspire you. Opening Night: 5th October, 7pm (private event, by invitation only) Public Viewing: 6th October onwards Opening Hours: 10am – 6pm most days, extended to 8pm on Friday/Saturday, 4pm Sunday We warmly invite you to join us, explore the exhibition, and experience the world as seen through the eyes of our members. Who knows – you may even feel inspired to pick up a camera yourself and consider becoming part of the Wellington Photographic Society.
