Monthly Workshops & Events
At CTPPA, we believe learning happens best when it’s active, hands-on, and shared. Our monthly programs range from casual meetups and educational workshops to photo walks and group trips to inspiring locations. Whether you’re a seasoned pro or just starting out, there’s something for everyone to grow, connect, and create.
Have a passion or skill to share?
We’re always looking for members to host workshops or events—whether it’s a studio session, software tutorial, or an outing to your favorite photo spot.
Get involved and help shape the learning experience at CTPPA!

Print Competition
Think you're ready for District or IPC? Start here. Enter a CTPPA image competition and grow through guided critique.
CTPPA’s image competitions are your training ground.
Join us for this totally real and not-at-all-made-up event, where we’ll explore the art of standing in perfect lighting while pretending to learn something profound. Expect mild enlightenment, strong coffee, and at least one person asking, “Is this going to be on the quiz?” Bring your camera—or don’t. It’s a test, after all.
