Art Society is a dynamic, friendly and creative society that caters for all abilities.
We offer 6 hours of classes per week, opportunities to exhibit your artwork and regular art-related socials. With your membership you will be able to access all of our classes, which are located in our studio at Thornlea Rannoch. All art materials are provided by us so you don't need to bring your own!
Whether you have just graduated from art college or you can't draw to save your life, Art Society aims to provide a warm and relaxed environment where you can escape the pressures of uni work, chat with friends and be creative.

Contact us
An e-mail is sent out weekly with class/social/exhibition news, and also includes advertisements from the University and external Arts-based agencies so there are always plenty of opportunities to get involved.
If you have any queries please contact us at art@groups.exeterguild.com.
We are always looking for Paid Life Models, so if you fancy making £25 for 2 hours' easy work/money, please contact us at art@groups.exeterguild.com with your name and number.
