Dedham Art Society
Membership New Application/Renewal Form
Dedham Village by Helen Morgans
The Dedham Art Society was established in October 1967, at that time it was known as the Dedham Arts Group. The name was changed to the Dedham Art Society at The AGM in 2018. Long established and an important part of Dedham life for almost 60 years.
There is normally no tuition and members are encouraged to assist with the programme. We also occasionally have some exciting workshops and demonstrations with visiting professional artists. We meet twice monthly on Thursday afternoons in the Assembly Rooms in Dedham High Street and once a month on a Saturday morning for plein air painting. In the summer months, we include one mid-week full day plein air venue.
The Society aims to hold one public exhibition each year. Exhibitors must be paid up members of the Society and are required to assist with stewarding if exhibiting. If you wish to know more, about the Society, please visit our home page where you will find links to our members gallery, our blog and programme.
The annual subscription is £30, payable from January to December. For anyone joining after 1st September, a subscription of £30 is payable immediately and the following January subscription will be waived for 1 year. We have demonstrations and workshops run by professional artists, to cover professional artist fees, there is a charge for 2-hour sessions which is usually £5-£10 per member. Charges for full day and 1/2-day workshops are published in advance.
We will continue to review our health and safety practices and keep members informed of any measures in place. Please be considerate of others and follow any guidance provided.
