What is CACCA?

CACCA
The Chicago Area Camera Club Association (“CACCA”) is an Association open to all Camera Clubs located in the Chicago Area, including Wisconsin and Indiana, that wish to actively participate in CACCA activities.

CACCAʼs objective is the development of fellowship among member Clubs and the promotion of photographic interests and accomplishments.

Each month CACCA Clubs and their members compete in Print, Slide and Digital judging. Interclub competitions are scheduled in Pictorial Slides, Large and Small Monochrome Prints, Large and Small Color Prints and Pictorial Digital Projected Images. Individuals can compete in Nature Prints and Slides, Photojournalism Prints and Slides. Individuals can compete in Nature Prints and Sides, Photojournalism Prints and Slides, Portrait Prints, Special Category and Artistically Rendered Images in a series of monthly contests.

At the summer 2011 CACCA Board of Directors meeting the following new rule for Slide Competitions was adopted. “Starting in the fall of 2011 any slide submitted to any slide competition which includes Interclub Pictorial Slides, Individual Nature Slides, Individual Photojournalism Slides and all the slide categories for the Spring Salon must be film based only. This means all slide entries must be exposed in the camera on film. NO COMPUTER MANIPULATION IS ALLOWED.”

Arlington Camera Club (“ACC”) is a member of CACCA and participates in the monthly Interclub competitions and adheres to CACCA competition rules. Entries for the CACCA competition are chosen from the ACC bimonthly competition entries.

The competition rules for Interclub and Individual entries may not be the same. For more information, check out the CACCA website at: http://www.caccaweb.com
