Welcome!
NBCC meets in Rockville, MD on most Wednesdays from September through May either in-person or via Zoom, depending on the event. Our calendar provides details for all our events.
We strive to challenge members with stimulating monthly competitions, educational programs, exhibits, field trips, an annual photo essay show, a number of Shared Interest Groups (SIGs), and a monthly newsletter, the Lens and Eye.
We invite you to explore this site to learn more about NBCC. If you have questions, please Contact Us.
