Photography Enthusiast Survey

I am looking to have a venue in my local area for photography enthusiast and would like to know if there were such a place in your area; what events, experiences, attractions, items would bring a photographer enthusiast to a venue, repeat visits, and attract new photography enthusiasts.

Here are some examples that has crossed my mind:

-Coffee shop where like minded people can mingle and share their own work (Like a book club but a photography club)

-Workshop events like photography processes using processes like caffenol or selenium toning for example.

-Workshops events on photography itself, basic 101 of photography or advanced photography

-State of the art picture printers for digital photos

-Dark rooms for self development of film

-Photography store of items from equipment to picture frames and everything in between

If a venue had 1 or more of these examples would you come and continue to come?

What other events, items, experiences would you recommend or what would compel you to visit a venue tailored to photography enthusiasts?

Thank you for your feedback and is greatly appreciated.

You could add a framing workshop so people can see the process from file to wall in a single location.

Consider your local library. Many have meeting rooms and wall space for art exhibits.

Another thing to lookout for are (Facebook) events with photography exhibitions and stuff like that. In my city these still happen relatively often. Consider finding one, attending and asking the organizers how you could join in the next time around, or if there are any other similar events scheduled by other people.
