To answer a few questions about the Art Group for anyone wondering about joining...
- Our Friday morning sessions in the Hope Rooms are "drop-ins". This means that once you are a member you can come along as often, or as infrequently, as you like.
- You are welcome to come along to a couple of sessions before paying the annual membership of £20, which runs from September-September each year, to check us out!!
- The drop-ins are for working on your own projects with your own materials. These are not "art classes" and there is no teaching, although there are plenty of experienced people on hand to offer advice and encouragement if you want it. There are also complete beginners! The group has a small selection of art materials to use if you want to try them. No oils please, unless they are low odour - and definitely no turps!
- The charge for a drop-in is £3 for the 2 hour sessions and £5 for the longer ones at the end of the month. You need to pay the full amount even if you don't stay for the full time - we still have to pay for the hire of the hall! Tea, coffee and nice biscuits are provided for you to help yourself. Sometimes we even have cake...
- Membership also entitles you to exhibit in any shows that we hold. Your membership fee should be paid up well in advance of any exhibition.
- We're also needing new committee members!
