Interclub Competition – New Haven vs Flagpole Showdown

Witness the Photography Showdown!

Join the Flagpole Photographers as we go head-to-head against the New Haven Camera Club in our annual interclub competition. Live Judging & Dessert included. Over the past month, our members have submitted and voted on hundreds of photos to select our single strongest entry for each of the 25 competition categories.

Tonight, we see how our best stacks up against New Haven’s best. A guest judge will review the paired photos side-by-side and declare a winner for each category. The club with the most wins takes the title!

• Cost: Free and open to the public.
• Who: Photographers and art lovers alike—come cheer on your local club!

3. Verdict: Both photos return to the screen. The judge discusses them and selects the winner.
