Palm Beach Photographic Centre's 22nd Annual MEMBERS' SHOW is a juried exhibition that showcases the work of its members, both inside the Photo Centre and on its Web site, www.workshop.org.

The Juror for the 22nd Annual Members Show was media industry leader and photojournalist Scott Mc Kiernan.

Today, ZUMA Wire Service is the agent to the world's most respected newspapers and magazines with over 33+ million images online. In 2016, Mc Kiernan won the prestigious Jim Gordon Award from the NPPA for Editor of the Year.

Also on display now at the Photo Centre is The FOTOcamp Exhibition, showcasing works by the talented young people, ages 10 to 17, who participated in this summer's FOTOcamp for Kids. This year's FOTOcamp winner is Allison Robbert (14) of Wellington, who received an SLR camera. Second place went to Jamie Jerchover (15) of Wellington, and third place went to Stephanie Barnard (16) of Boca Raton - both of whom received a free family membership at the Photo Centre.
