Welcome to the Cotswold Art Club
The Cotswold Art Club was established in Cheltenham in 1931. Membership is open to all artists both amateur and professional. The club gives support and encouragement to its Members with the following activities.
Artists Demonstations
On the third Saturday of each month from September to June, we meet in The Pavilion, Hatherley Lane, Cheltenham GL51 6PN at 2-30pm – 4.30pm. We usually have a talk/demonstration by someone in the art fraternity that is always enjoyable, informative and useful with a tea break halfway through. You will be made very welcome by our Committee welcome group and current members if you wish to attend.
Exhibitions
Exhibitions are arranged in Gloucestershire, to enable members to sell and exhibit their work. Details of upcoming events can be found on the Club Exhibition Page.
Workshops
Tutored workshops are arranged personally by our speakers during the year, in various styles and mediums. Details are available on the Workshop and Event Page.
En Plein Air
In summer, members may meet occasionally at pre-arranged venues for outdoor sketching and painting.

Membership Information for the Cotswold Art Club .
The current joining fee for the club is £10 plus an annual membership fee of £20 for the year, running from 1st January-31st December;(cheques payable to Cotswold Art Club). You join as an Associate Member and as such you are entitled to attend and take part in everything except exhibiting.
The annual membership fee for both associate and full members is the same. Associates cannot exhibit their work but to become a full member and exhibit with the Club, work must be accepted by the selection committee at one of our meetings. This is very informal and you are invited to bring three pieces of your original work (copies or prints are not accepted).
If we can help you with any further information please contact the relevant Committee Member on the ‘contact us’ section or click on the ‘Join Us Now’ button below. Once you fill in the form our Membership Secretary will be in touch.
