Sparta Camera Club to hold open house April 19

Sparta - The Sparta Camera Club will hold its annual open house meeting at 7:30 p.m. on Wednesday, April 19, at the Sparta Library. The meeting is open to all amateur photographers. The activities of the club will be discussed, refreshments will be served, club members’ photos will be displayed and Dr. Linas Kuzma will be the guest speaker. Kudzma, an award-winning and published nature and fine art photographer, developed his passion for nature as an undergraduate biology student, with particular interest in entomology (insects) and mycology (molds and fungi). His doctoral work led him into an exploration of different photographic printing techniques. Among his favorite subjects are macrophotography of butterflies and mushrooms. His slide presentation at the open house will focus on butterflies.
