Salcombe Art Club

Salcombe Art Club Salcombe Art Club is a community of enthusiastic artists situated in the heart of Salcombe. All welcome. Free admission. Come and see what we have been up to.

Salcombe Art Club is a thriving club situated in the heart of Salcombe. It was born in 1960, when a small group of enthusiastic painters rented a disused sail loft, which they eventually bought and updated. Built of stone and approached outside by a flight of stone steps it’s a charming building to visit. The aim of the Salcombe Art Club is to strengthen the art community in Salcombe, offering a v

ariety of courses and classes, as well as a stunning yearly exhibiton to showcase th work of local artists. Every year when spring comes round, the Salcombe Art Club members scrub up their winter work loft to turn it into a light-filled art gallery displaying a wide range of original artwork. Paintings, drawings, original hand-pressed prints and sculpture by selected professional and amateur artists are all for sale. This year’s exhibition has 33 participating artists and more than 150 pieces on display. From Easter until September 24th the loft will be open daily from 11 to 5. Fore more information about this event, visit our website. Also, in autumn and winter, a wide range of courses are run for the benefit of Salcombe Art Club members. Lay membership is great value. It not only gives you access to courses, but you help to support a strong creative community in Salcombe. For more information about upcoming courses this year, please visit our website:

Handing in day was a very slick and organised event.
In the afternoon work was selected by a panel and then the hanging team moved in to carefully place all the selected pieces on the walls ready for the grand opening on Saturday 23rd May at 11am.

The exhibition is free and will be open every day until the end of September.

Last chance to book for the last workshop of the season!

There are a few places available on a one-day workshop tutored by

‘Flowers in Watercolour and Coloured Water-Soluble Pencils -Inspired by Charles Rennie Mackintosh ‘.

Tuesday 12th May 2026, 10.00 am - 4pm

The course aims to focus on composition by drawing free, loose line to ‘dip and draw’ with water soluble coloured pencils and delicate watercolour washes. Exercises to guide your hand and eye into creating this will produce a series of beautiful well-designed paintings and drawings where space, transparent colour and light delight the well composed flower designs. You will learn a lot about watercolour pigment strength and brush control.

Head over to the SAC website to book your place!
