From informal gatherings in local pubs to weekly meetings and thriving exhibitions\, the Club’s dedication to its craft has remained steadfast. Even during the challenging pandemic period\, the Club adapted\, embracing virtual meetings that welcomed new members and inspired creativity. \nShaping the Community Through the Lens\nThe A1 Camera Club isn’t just about photography; it’s about community engagement. Through the lens\, club members have supported local charities\, captured events of historical significance\, and contributed to the visual tapestry of Weston-super-Mare. Their work has enriched exhibitions\, publications\, and even played a role in the restoration of Weston Museum. \nJoin Us\nMark your calendars and join us for the A1 Camera Club Annual Exhibition at Weston Museum\, September 5th to September 16th\, 2023.

SUMMARY:Amazing Artefacts - Home Educators Monthly Sessions
DESCRIPTION:  \nWelcome to the Autumn Season of Amazing Artefacts – Home Educators Monthly Sessions!\nEach month\, we will take part in a variety of different hands on activities inspired by an item from the collections. Each season\, we will explore a new theme\, which for the Autumn Season will be ‘Ancient Textiles’. \nAutumn season dates and times are as follows:\nWednesday 13th Sept (10:30-11:30 Juniors\, 12-1 Seniors)\nWednesday 11th Oct (10:30-11:30 Juniors\, 12-1 Seniors)\nWednesday 8th Nov (10:30-11:30 Juniors\, 12-1 Seniors) \nSessions are designed to be active and accessible for a mix of ages and abilities with 2 separate sessions for younger or older children. The morning session will be aimed at slightly younger children aged approximately 5-8\, nicknamed our Juniors\, and the afternoon session will be aimed at the slightly older children aged approximately 9+\, nicknamed our Seniors. If you would like to attend as a family group with mixed ages\, then just pick whichever session you feel would be most suitable for the group as a whole.\nIf you would like to let us know about any specific considerations for your children then we would welcome this\, just get in touch. \nTickets need to be purchased for each child attending\, but grown ups do not need to purchase a separate ticket. It usually works best for the younger or less confident children if grown ups stay and join in with activities. Whereas for older or more confident children it is usually fine for grown ups to not stay in the session\, although they will need to stay within the museum building whilst the session is taking place. Tickets cost £17.50 per child for the 3 month seasonal block and can be booked via Ticketsource or by popping into or phoning the museum directly.\nAttendees will be encouraged to continue their learning at home between sessions and the year will finish with a display of the children’s work from all of the sessions within the museum. \nRusty Club (YAC) Membership – Please note that we occasionally do the same crafts or activities in Rusty Club sessions as we do in Home Educator sessions\, so if you decide to join in with both programmes there may be some sessions with duplicated topics.
