There are now a few places in Art group and would love for you to join us. 

This relaxed, supportive and friendly  group meet in a room at the YHA in Bridge Street.  Historically, members have chosen whether to attend weekly or fortnightly and this choice has been maintained.  Of course, the cost to members is adjusted likewise.  The final weekly costings will be determined by the number of members committing to the group at the start of each season. 

The YHA is accessible to all, and has a lift.  Refreshments can be purchased from the Bistro bar on site. 

Recommended parking is on the Quayside as the parking lot adjacent to the YHA is only 2 hours. 

The Art group run from September to December, then January to May. 

Members are asked to supply their own materials, including paper.

N.B. This is not a tutorial style group, but self-led, although there is a lot of experience and advice that members share freely!  The programme will be determined by members on a rolling basis. 

For further information please use the Group email (above) to contact the group leader

Henri Matisse 1869-1954

Henri Matisse 1869-1954 is one of the great French artists who loved colour and often used colourful materials in his still life works and in his pictures looking out of windows where the scenery followed the main colour of his interior. Here are some of the materials he might have used if he was with us now.
