The PhotoArts Group formed in 2003 when a group of photographers in San Diego County joined together to show their work. The group has since mounted numerous successful shows at venues such as 262 East Grand Avenue in Escondido, Archives of Escondido Gallery, Spanish Village in Balboa Park, Poway Center for the Performing Arts, Scripps Memorial Hospital, Rancho Penasquitos Library and ArtWalk in San Diego.

The group’s photographers include established professionals and emerging artists. Their work encompasses a wide variety of styles and media ranging from traditional gelatin silver to old and new alternative processes and digital images. Please visit: http://www.photoartsgroup.org
