Our friendly group of leisure painters meet on Tuesday afternoons 2.00 – 4.00 pm between September and the end of May. Demonstrations/talks are held monthly, open to non members at a cost of £2.00.

We are lucky to have professional artist Owen James as our tutor who encourages us to try different media as well as watercolour. An exhibition of our work is held annually and we organise a trip during the year to an art gallery when there is sufficient demand. During the summer break a couple of outdoor painting sessions are organised locally.

New members of all abilities are most welcome.
