Failand Art and Crafts Club

This group started in September 2008 when a small band of local artists decided it would be nice to meet regularly to work together and help each other develop their skills. Since those early days there have been over 70 people use the group and a couple of the original members still remain. We decided from the beginning not to operate as an art class and employ teachers but to help each other develop our skills. This has meant a very informal and relaxed atmosphere where people can progress at their own pace where there is no competition. We have painters in water colours, oils and acrylics and other members who work in pencil, charcoal and ink. We have had artists who worked in glass and card making and currently have a felt maker. There are artists of all abilities, and with the informal help we provide, all improve their skills and share their talents. In the past we have held our own exhibitions and joined other local groups in their art shows. The group meets every Wednesday afternoon between 2pm and 4.30pm with the obligatory tea break somewhere in the middle. We are always looking for new members to join our jolly band. ​Contact Email: feltbyfi@gmail.com Phone: 07887 944752
