Dorset Independent Photographers return to the Town Mill once again with their Autumn Exhibition featuring work from photographers Carol Tritton, Andy White, Chris Hilton, Malcolm Macnaughtan and John Tilsley.

Dorset Independent Photographers began in 1988 following an inspiring weekend workshop in Dorchester led by Fay Godwin, a seminal figure in 20th century British landscape photography. Members of the group, who are mostly based in West Dorset, have been meeting regularly in each other’s homes to share work ever since and they have exhibited widely in the region.

Photographic styles may have evolved since the 1980s, but Dorset Independent Photographers has remained a constant presence in the region’s visual arts scene. The secret of its staying power has been its informality, its members’ willingness to share work in progress and to exchange honest but constructive criticism.

The exhibition runs from Monday 13 until Sunday 19 October and is open daily from 10am until 4pm. Entry is free of charge.
