More About Theydon Art Group
Indoor Meetings
We meet at Theydon Bois Village Hall (see below), usually on the second Friday of each month. We usually have a demonstration or a talk by a professional artist. There are plenty of opportunities to ask questions or for advice. Most meetings start at 7.30 pm and finish at about 10 pm.
Non-members are very welcome and are charged 4 pounds.
Please sign the visitors book.
Tea and coffee are available at the break.
Exhibitions
Our exhibitions show the talent of our local members who use watercolour, acrylics, pastels or oils, as well as pencil sketches and pen work. The variety of styles and subjects makes the exhibitions interesting, and provides something for everyone to enjoy. Pictures are for sale at reasonable prices.
