A new community art club is being planned for Upwey. We welcome painters, sketchers, photographers, craft enthusiasts and anyone with an interest in creativity. Whether you are a complete beginner or an experienced artist, we would love to hear from you. Register your interest and help shape this exciting new community group.
Upwey Art Club
Become a Founding Artist
What Could We Do?
The activities will be chosen by members, but ideas include:
🎨 Painting and Drawing Sessions
🌳 Outdoor Sketching Around Upwey
📷 Photography Walks
🖌 Watercolour Workshops
🏡 Painting Local Upwey Scenes
☕ Creative Coffee Mornings
🖼 Member Exhibitions
🎄 Christmas Art and Craft Events
👧 Children's Art Activities
🏆 Annual Upwey Art & Photography Competition
"Painting Upwey"
Over the first year members create paintings, sketches and photographs of:
The Wishing Well
The River Wey
St Laurence Church
St Nicholas Church
Upwey Old Manor
The village lanes
Local wildlife
The best works could then be displayed in an Upwey Art Exhibition and featured on the Upwey Village website.
Upwey Art Club is being created by local people for local people.
We are currently looking for a founding artist and a small group of enthusiastic members to help shape the club and decide what activities it offers.
Together we could create a friendly and welcoming group where people can learn new skills, share ideas, make friends and celebrate creativity within our community.
Could You Be Our Founding Artist?
We are looking for one local artist who would enjoy helping to launch Upwey Art Club.
You do not need committee experience—just enthusiasm for art and a desire to encourage creativity within our community.
As a founding artist you would help shape the club's activities, inspire members and become part of a new chapter in Upwey's community life.
Interested? We'd love to hear from you.
What Happens Next
Every masterpiece starts with a blank canvas. Perhaps Upwey Art Club starts with a coffee and a brandy.
