Annual Exhibition  3rd - 11th September, 10am - 5pm.

            By the time you read this, the Vale of Pickering Art Club Annual Exhibition will be underway, at the Memorial Hall, Potter Hill, Pickering YO18 8AA. The exhibition will feature the art work of local amateurs and semi-professionals, including paintings and drawings in a wide variety of media as well as sculpture, hand made pottery and 3-dimensional work in wood, paper and  needlecraft.

            Please do come along and have a look! Entry is free and accessible. Home-made cake and drinks will be available. 

            Demonstrations this year have been inspirational and very well attended. The July outdoor painting day at Peter Davison’s farm was a huge success, due not only to the availability of sheltered areas to work in, but also to the richness of subjects, and not least to Peter’s welcoming hospitality.

            We look forward to an exciting schedule of autumn events, with evening demonstrations on the second Thursdays of October and November and a one day mixed media workshop. (see the Coming Events section)

            We have been delighted to welcome a number of new members over recent weeks and anyone interested in art is always welcome. This is a friendly local club, open to anyone interested in art – you don’t have to be an active painter to enjoy club activities.
