WHO ARE GRAVESEND ART GROUP?


Gravesend Art  Group was formed in 1959 and celebrated 60 years in 2019. We meet every Friday evening in the Veterans Association Hall, Clarence Place, Gravesend, from 7.00pm – 9.00pm. During the summer months we try to paint outside when possible. You will find the current programme on our website so you can see the kind of sessions we have planned for the next few weeks.  


We hold an annual exhibition, and take part in other local events and exhibitions.  We also have social events, including an Annual Dinner, Quiz Night, and day trips and outings to places of interest.  We are an informal, friendly crowd and we are all very happy to help and advise each other, but we do not teach, and expect you to be competent enough to work on your own.

Membership fee is £25 payable on the 1st April each year.  People joining after 1st November pay £10 for the remaining months of membership. No further charges are made for our meetings, as this covers hire of the hall, models and demonstrations by visiting artists.  


You will find more information on our Facebook page under Gravesend Art Group which is updated regularly with pictures of our weekly sessions.


We like people to come along to a meeting, and join in the session if they want to, before they decide whether to join the Group.  If you are interested in joining us, please contact us on the above email address and our secretary will arrange the best day for you to come to a meeting.  


We look forward to hearing further from you.
