Welcome to CACCA, the Umbrella for the Chicago Area Camera Clubs
The objective of CACCA is the development of fellowship among member Clubs and promotion of photographic interests and accomplishments.
We offer programs at our monthly meetings on areas of photographic interest as well as competitions both for individual members and member clubs in a variety of categories. We also sponsor a biannual photography school (CAPS) to provide a weekend of classroom learning and hands on workshops on many areas of photographic interest.
CACCA has been in existence since 1936. Today there are approximately 35 clubs in the Chicago and Northwest Indiana area that are a part of CACCA. Find a club near you.
Board of Directors and Delegates meetings and Large and Small Print Competitions are held at the Northwest Covenant Church, 300 N Elmhurst Ave., Mt. Prospect, IL 60056 (Map to CACCA) on the second Saturday of the month in November, January, March and May. Board meeting begins at 9:00 am and delegate meeting begins at 10:00 am.
All DPI competitions are held via zoom on the third Saturday of the month, October through May.
