Art Group

Open meeting – everyone welcome – just drop in

We meet every Friday in the warm and comfortable New Room at Oakwood Church from 19.30 until 21.30 – except when we take breaks at Easter, in August school holidays and over Christmas and New Year.

You don’t have to come every week, just drop in when you can or whenever the muse is upon you

Everyone is welcome. The Art Group is enjoyed by people of all ages and abilities from complete beginners and accompanied children to established local Artists. We explore our own ideas, in our own medium, in our own way, at our own pace, and share our knowledge and experience with each other.

There are no rules, no lessons, no homework, no expectations and no pressures – which make it a kind, sociable and truly relaxing way to spend an evening. The only thing that matters is that you enjoy being creative.

Some people work in watercolours, others in oil paints, acrylic paints, pastels, pen and ink, pencil, card, modelling clay, fabric, graphic design on computer _ _ _ there is no limit to your imagination and creativity. Bring your own materials – a pencil and paper are one of many inexpensive starting points. Some may find time to develop their projects between meetings but others only make progress on Friday evenings.

We suggest a donation of £2.50 each meeting towards room costs but don’t want anyone to exclude themselves so please, only donate what you can afford. Accompanied children are free. Refreshments are provided free of charge by members who volunteer to put their names on a rota.

Just drop-in one Friday evening or, if you would like to know more, please
