“The Island Art Association Photographers Group formed in 2006 when then IAA President Roger Moore and local photographer Bill Raser, recognized the extent of interest in photography on Amelia Island and the need for a special interest group.  There are currently 33 active members.  It is a diverse group of both amateurs and professionals.  The group meets monthly on the fourth Thursday at 7 p.m., normally in the IAA studio at 18 N. Second St., Fernandina Beach, FL.
 

The meetings consist of demonstrations and technical presentations and a monthly themed critique (show and tell) of members’ photography.  The group has been featured in exhibits at First Coast Community Bank, the Island Art Association Co-op Gallery Featured Art Displays, and the Florida State College North Campus Art Gallery. 
 

Photographers are encouraged to become members in the Island Art Association so they may participate in IAA-sponsored exhibits and to receive newsletters and other membership benefits.  Otherwise, they may simply attend meetings and furnish their e-mail address to receive Photogroup information concerning meetings, exhibits, special photo shoots, etc.  Contact the IAA at 904 261-7020, or email to mailbox@islandart.org”
