The Four Parishes Art Society (Amport, Grateley, Monxton and Quarley) meets monthly in one of the Village Halls. They usually have a speaker on a wide variety of topics such as art, gardening crafts, architecture. Visits are also arranged during the year to places of interest.
Just a reminder that all residents of the Four Parishes – Amport, Grateley, Monxton and Quarley are eligible for membership. An interest in art in the broadest sense is all that is required. Many of our members are not “active” artists. Anyone interested should contact one of the committee.
Details of the programme of events appear monthly in the Parish News. Click for this month ->.
