We are delighted to be the venue for a very interesting photographic exhibition at The Usual Place which will launch on Monday 2nd March at 6-8pm.  The exhibition will be available to customers during cafe opening times until Friday 11th April 2026.

The exhibition is organised byU3A Camera Club and The Dumfries Lions Club in aid of The Usual Place.

Members of the U3A Camera Club have inherited 150 mounted photographic prints created by the late Geoff Walters.  Geoff was a keen member of the U3A Camera Club and a one-time member of the Dumfries and the Loreburn Camera Clubs.  In tribute to Geoff’s prolific work, The Dumfries Lions Club has offered to help exhibit and sell the photos in aid of the “The Usual Place” community café and Dumfries Lions Club.

U3A Camera Club members and the Lions are organising the event, which will be held at The Usual Place, and they have photographed and catalogued the prints (which feature a range of subjects including Scottish landscapes and seascapes together with architecture and some wildlife) for this special occasion.

The event, marking Geoff’s photographic legacy, will be launched on Monday, March 2 at 6-8pm at The Usual Place, Dumfries and U3A members are cordially invited along with the public to attend the launch. The exhibition and sale will continue at the Usual Place and is open to the public on weekdays from 9.30am – 4pm until Friday 11th April
