Steephill Art Club In September 2019 I started an art club at my studio in Saltdean. I had to suspend it in March 2020 due to the Covid-19 outbreak, but we started again, twice a week, in September 2021. I set it up because I wanted to offer local people the opportunity to try different areas of art whilst having fun in a sociable environment. The first rule of art club is – enjoy yourself! I provide all the materials plus refreshments - all you need to do is turn up. People have a go at whatever they feel like doing – I have lots of paints; pencils; pastels; inks; glass and ceramic paints; canvases; paper of all persuasion; glass and ceramics to paint on and sketchbooks to keep a record of your progress. I have tutorial books, magazines for inspiration and even a TV. (We watched a Eurovision semi-final and a good time was had by all!)

My art clubbers displayed their work during my open studio plus we had a glass of wine and nibbles. People of all abilities are members from total beginners to the more experienced. Everyone is very friendly, we have a chat and a laugh while we create. I am always happy to help, guide and explain when it’s wanted. We start again on 8�� September due to my studies for a Masters Degree in Fine Art, I will be running sessions on Thursdays, 10:00 am to 12 Noon and 7:30 pm to 9:30 pm. The cost is £10 per session per person. I have a limited number of spaces, so each week I need people to let me know if they will attend. Interested? Please get in touch at pollyfarrellsteephill@gmail.com My studio is on the first floor of my house so I regret that it is not wheelchair friendly.
