What is PSA ?
PSA is Worldwide
The opportunity to enjoy your hobby with members in 60 countries throughout the world. Established in 1934, it is the largest association of its kind, bringing together professional and amateur enthusiasts of all ages and levels of achievement. As a non-profit organization, its mission is to promote and enhance the art and science of photography in all its phases, among members and non-members alike.
PSA is People
The opportunity to meet folks from around the globe, to make new friends who share your interests, to reunite at our conference in exciting locations around the country. This annual "homecoming” offers total submersion in our shared craft where members and famous professionals present tutorials, shows, and workshops over four days with one- to five-day field trips before and after.
PSA is Sharing
The opportunity to teach through slide shows circulated to member clubs, councils, and chapters around the country. The opportunity to publish articles in our monthly PSA Journal, a quality magazine filled with stimulating and educational articles and features written by and for members. The opportunity to present shows and workshops at local, regional, and national meetings.
PSA is Learning
The opportunity for your images to be critiqued by experts via Personal Evaluation Services, accessed by fellow photographers in Slide and Print Study Groups, and evaluated around the country using Interclub Competitions.
PSA is Recognition
The opportunity to have your work displayed on the PSA Wesite, in the PSA Journal , and in International Exhibitions throughout the year.
