During these past years, a great many people started falling in love with digital photography and everyone now knows the benefits and advantages these technologies have brought about. The same thing happened in Gozo, and as time passed by, the amount of Gozitan photographers or those owning a D-SLR camera increased rapidly.

These camera owners have managed to achieve fantastic photographic results and there are others who are still starting their learning curve. Therefore, it was decided to gather these people and set up a new association. The principal aim of this new organisation is to promote photography as an artistic medium, help those interested in learning about photography through several activities and courses, and also praise those who achieve the best results.

This association will carry the name of Gozo Photography Association (GPA), and will work hard to promote photography, not only on the island of Gozo, but also nationally and internationally. A General Meeting is being called on Friday 18th January 2013 at Cana Centre, Triq Fortunato Mizzi, Victoria, Gozo starting at 6.00pm. During this meeting, a proposed statute will be discussed and approved. An election will follow for the Executive Committee.

Photographers who would like to serve on the Executive Committee must apply and send their request to gozophotography@gmail.com by not later than Thursday, 17th January 2013.
