Exhibition by Ripon City Photographic Society

I’m writing, on behalf of Ripon City Photographic Society, to invite the members of your organisation to visit our Society’s Photographic Exhibition at the Curzon Cinema in Ripon. The Exhibition, which will be in the upstairs Studio at the cinema, will be open during cinema hours from Tuesday 10th February through to Sunday 22nd February.

On display will be around 40 prints and 60 digital images showing the wide range of our members’ interests and photographic skills. We hope you will be able to visit our event and look forward to meeting you and sharing with you, through our exhibition, our mutual interest in photography.

Alongside your visit to our exhibition, why not take a walk around Ripon? Though it is one of the country’s smallest cities, Ripon offers the photographer a wealth of photo opportunities. From our beautiful Cathedral to the historic Workhouse, Prison and Courthouse Museums and the many and varied architectural styles of the buildings in and around the Market Square, there is a picture at every turn.

Ripon has many links with Lewis Carroll some of which are captured in the carved figures of the ‘Alice in Wonderland’ characters in the delightful Spa Gardens.
Alternatively, you may wish to include in your visit an afternoon or evening showing of a film. The Curzon, our new ‘state-of-the-art’ two-screen cinema, shows the latest in mainstream, independent and family films from around the world as well as events such as the New York Metropolitan Opera and National Theatre Live.
The location of the Curzon Cinema is 74-75 North Street, Ripon, HG4 1DP. Films scheduled for showing during the period of our exhibition are ‘Kingsman’, ’Selma’, ’50 Shades of Grey’ (a film about black and white photography, perhaps?) and ‘Sean the Sheep’ for half term week. For times of showings and full information, please see their website: www.curzoncinemas.com/cinemas/ripon/

Though some car parking is available in the Market Square, two larger car parks are sited off Marshall Way and at the junction of Moss’ Arcade and Victoria Grove. All are council operated and are pay and display.

All good wishes,
