Art Group

The Art-Group, originally known as “Calverton & Gedling Art Group” was formed in the 1980’s for the benefit of the people of these areas. Although the group started at the Calverton village hall, over the years the hall was not used very often by the village & became very dilapidated. The news came that the council intended to sell the place for development, so we started to look for other premises.

In 2008, the decision was made to move the group to The Dales URC due to more of the members attending coming from the Carlton & Bakersfield area.

The group is friendly and welcomes people of all artistic abilities from beginner to advanced.

We meet on a Monday morning 9.30am – 12noon (School Term Time Only)

Mediums used by the members are Acrylics, Oils, Watercolour, Water Colour Pencils and Pastels. A professional tutor visits the group every three weeks and is available for help and advice to all members,

Membership fee is paid once every term, approx. £20 per term. (Autumn, Spring, Summer)

The group is very friendly and the art work is very accomplished. We look forward to meeting new members.
