Clicker & Flickers has been around for about 24 years, founded by Dawn Hope Stevens to bring photography enthusiasts with professionals such as Jim Marshall, Melvin Sokolsky and Julius Shulman among others as well as photo professionals, such as publishers, curators, collectors, photo editors and writers to speak at their dinner lecture series.
This month she brings Jeff Charbonneau and Eliza French as the guest dinner lecturer. It is next Tuesday April 27 from 6:30-10 pm. The price depends if you're a member or not and runs between $50-$60. If you saw their work at Robert Berman gallery at MOPLA's opening night celebration and wanted to hear their story, now is your chance ! BTW : their exhibition is still up at the gallery until May 5th.

INFO
Visited these Clickers & Flickers events several times - very few individuals that make their living from photography rather retired enthusiasts and non photographers who talk about photography as though they know what they speak. The events are over priced for a $11 chicken dinner and a digital slide show. They have not had a constructive workshop for years and the free field trips are limited to free events open to the public.
ReplyDeleteI agree that the Clickers & Flickers events are terribly overpriced. For equal or better photographic events that are FREE, try the SCCC -- Sierra Club Camera Committee, which meets on the second Monday of every month (except August) at the Felicia Mahood Center on Santa Monica Blvd. near the 405, in Santa Monica. There are some amazing presentations, by both professionals and amateurs. Everyone is welcome, and you don't have to belong to the Sierra Club.

ReplyDeleteWhat a disappointment Clickers & Flickers events lack real understanding of photography.
ReplyDeleteThey are overpriced sit down dinner parties with an organizer who has an attitude and spends more time talking about herself at every opportunity.
During an event I attended the older man who sat next to me fell asleep during the presentation and started snoring! Nothing but a tired bunch of retired non-professionals.
