Art Group

The Art Group organises outings for people in Bowes Park who would like to do some drawing although you don't have to want to draw to come along. Trips are organised every month or so to museums or, in the summer, parks and cemeteries. Sometimes we do day trips out of London to historic places, travelling by rail on '4 for the price of 2' tickets.

If you would like to join us on our next trip or you would like more information then please click here to go the "Contact Us" form where you can choose the Art Group from the drop down menu to direct your email.

PAST TRIPS

On 8 January we had a great day trip to Cambridge, always a lovely place to visit, including the Vermeer exhibition at the Fitzwilliam museum.

On 11 December we utilised our 'default setting' and went to the V&A - 8 miles of galleries with a huge variety of things to draw and the wonderfully ornate tiled tearooms.

On 16 October we visited the Horniman Museum in south London, now easily accessible to us north Londoners by the overground train from Highbury & Islington to Forest Hill. It has recently been gussied up and is splendid - lovely gardens, an ornate conservatory and collections of natural history (walruses are really big!), musical instruments and African cultures.
