Welcome to our Art Group

We have a packed programme of art demonstrations, exhibition opportunities, social events and workshops.

We welcome adult art lovers of all capabilities, whether they are primarily creators or observers.

You can focus on any media you enjoy. We have more than 150 artists who use a variety of different media, including textile artists and ceramicists.

Our regular meeting slot is the fourth Wednesday of the month (7:30 – 9:30). These are Live demonstrations in spring, summer and autumn months, Zoom in winter months. Non members welcome to live demonstrations (£5). 

During the year we hold monthly workshops (Saturdays), untutored life sessions (Sundays), and ‘drop-in sessions’ on the second Wednesday of the month. We also host a sprinkling of social evenings where we might have a talk, or quiz, or discuss paintings brought in by our members.  

At least one group exhibition is held annually, usually being part of the Hampshire Open Studios event, and the group will consider other opportunities (major galleries welcome to apply!).
