Over a two week period Kitchen Table Photo Club are creating all kinds of situations to exhibit photographic prints, invent cameras and make images in Stroud. Workshops and film screenings too. KTPC are hands on at SVA.

- Drop in to explore KTPC’s history and their adventures in the home, city & nearby woodlands.

- Feel free to bring old cameras and photos to the gallery and chat with us about your photographic stories.

- Watch KTPC films made in Lower Woods, The Dings and Kath Bloom.

- Join a Fantasy Camera workshop and become part of the club.

- Play with, and be inspired, by the Bewilderment Cards .

Set up to be a relatively stable, affordable, fun-to-run club which can be madly hectic, super quiet and all kinds of creative, KTPC is an art group. Artist, Esther May Campbell, founded it in her home, in Easton Bristol, around the kitchen table. The club gathers people (lots of young people!) to mess around, explore the world with analogue cameras, create images and exhibit work. All the while the club fosters friendships and situations that encourage play. KTPC explores what it’s like being an artist and creates lots of photographs along the way. The club travels too and when it does it adapts. It sets up in different places, engaging KTPC members to help out while forging new connections. So..hello Stroud Valley and all other places and people, welcome to the handicraft of KTPC. It’s half way to good...to get hands on.
