You do not need to be an artist yourself to fill these roles, but some interest in art and craft is welcomed.

This year it would be fantastic if we could have some new faces. If you or your family/friends may be able to take on a role it would be a great help to keep the Art Society running. Please consider a position as we all know that many hands make light work!

We want our Arts Society to continue well into the future with many successful artistic endeavours to come.
