Royston Arts Society

Royston Arts Society Do you enjoy painting? Like to share your enjoyment with like minded people? Live in North East Hertfordshire or South Cambridgeshire? Then contact us.

We are grateful for the support of Johnson Matthey and Royston Town Mayor's Community Trust Fund. Formed in 1978 the Royston Arts Society is a thriving group of about 100 local people, all of whom share the same interest; painting and the visual arts. All our meetings take place at Market Hill Rooms, at the top of Fish Hill, Royston where we get together twice a month, on the 1st & 3rd Tuesdays fr

om 2 – 4pm to paint & socialize. Guests are always welcome to come along and join in. We also maintain a permanent exhibition of member’s paintings in Royston Library. All of the paintings are for sale at very affordable prices and sell on a regular basis. Professional demonstrations in various media are also held in Market Hill Rooms, on the second Friday evening of most months, from 8 – 10pm. Visitors are always welcome to attend any of these events for a fee of £3 per session. An annual open exhibition is staged each year in Royston Town Hall in conjunction with the RoystonArtsFestival.org. Over 90 artists exhibit more than 450 original paintings, all of which are for sale. We also run an online exhibition for RAS members only. This runs from mid April to mid June. Members of the society pay a nominal annual fee and for this are entitled to enter the annual and the Members exhibitions, display work in the library and attend all the practical meetings and demonstrations free of any additional charge, apart from any commission on sold work. We are a very friendly group who are always happy to welcome and encourage new members and visitors who wish to develop their painting skills.
