Each year the Huntington Camera Club (HCC) hosts an annual event to raise funds for Cancer Research. HCC Members contribute prints, greeting cards, and other media for sale to the public for this event.
For the past four years the HCC has raised over $21,000 in proceeds going to various cancer charities. Proceeds will go directly to Memorial Sloan Kettering (MSKCC), where 100% of the donations will fund ongoing cancer research.
This year’s silent art auction features a widely diverse selection of handpicked, original artwork donated by very talented local Long Island artists and photographers. Many of the images along with the artist and other information may be viewed on-line at https://www.32auctions.com/photosfightscancer.com. Starting on April 2nd, bids may also be placed online.

The Huntington Camera Club was founded in 1966 to provide beginning and advanced photographers an opportunity to learn to improve their skills, meet with others interested in photography, and provide a forum for showing their photographs. Membership is open to everyone with an interest in photography regardless of skill level. The Club offers instructional programming, multi-media presentations, judged competitions, field trips and other events. Meetings are held every Tuesday evening, starting at 7:30 PM at the Huntington Public Library, 338 Main Street, Huntington Village NY.
