NESTON AND DISTRICT ART SOCIETY
The Neston and District Art Society was founded in October 1982, the first Committee formed in 1984 and the first Exhibition took place in 1986. The current format of the Society is for a meeting to be held every fortnight on a Monday, with a monthly demonstration/talk in the evening from 7.30pm to 9.30pm, followed two weeks later by a practical/social in the afternoon from 2pm to 4pm. Meetings are held at St Michael's Church, Little Neston. We hold an annual exhibition in Neston Town Hall, held every April, and usually arrange a day’s workshop during the year. We currently have a membership of around 90. For further information please contact the Membership Secretary, by email on membership@nestonartsociety.co.uk
