Annual Art Group Exhibition and Dinner

The Art Group is gearing up for its busy time of year, settling into the autumn term classes and preparing for the Annual Art Group Exhibition and Dinner on Tuesday 14th November.

Artists wishing to exhibit should be thinking about their selection of three works and getting them framed if appropriate. Tutors are always happy to advise. Forms for submission should be handed in by Friday 13th October.

The official opening of the Art Group Exhibition and Sale on Tuesday 14th November is open to all and offers the opportunity to admire the works over a glass of wine with friends. You could even buy an early Christmas present for yourself or loved ones!

The annual Art Group Dinner follows immediately after the opening reception and is open to all who have prebooked. This event is always fantastic fun and very inclusive. You can come as an individual and be seated on a table where you will be made welcome, or book in a group of up to ten. You may also invite guests. A delicious menu is planned.

Art Group members £45 | Guests £50
Booking is open until Tuesday 7th November. Places are limited so early booking is advised. Book now at Reception or give the team a call on 020 8480 4200.
