During the evening, we also provide refreshments free to our members.We also have specific events scheduled throughout the year to provide an optional activity. These may include: group art activities, demonstrations, workshops.
On the first Wednesday of each month, we have a 'Competition with critique' evening. Members are encouraged to bring along a piece of art they have created that matches the competition title for that evening. During this evening members have the chance to vote on their favourite artwork and this is followed with a quick friendly critique. During the year, the results are totalled up and the member with the highest score is awarded the 'Moira Nicholson Vase' - See the Awards page on our website.
