Our groups

Enjoy our group sessions

We have groups for a range of creative disciplines.

Painting: We offer 4 tutor led groups and one self-led group in art/painting. There are limited numbers in the tutored groups, so these must be booked in a block only. See below for details.

Life Drawing: We use live models for our life drawing group, meeting for three 10 week terms a year. Self led, with mutual assistance. See below for details.

Ceramics: Winter 2024 We are lucky enough to have two kilns along with 3 potters’ wheels and a range of glazes, oxides and moulds. However we already have 75 members attending each week and there is a long waiting list, so the opportunities to join only arise now when a current member leaves and that turnover of membership is pretty low. You are welcome to email us with details of your pottery experience, when you are available and your location. Whilst we will keep a note of your interest, please bear in mind that it is unlikely that we’ll be able to offer you a place for some time to come.

See our Whats On page for upcoming Workshops!
