nottingham society of artists
Nottingham
Nottingham Society of Artists is one of the oldest and most successful art
societies in the country, founded in 1880. Our aim is to bring together artists
and others interested in the Visual Arts who are resident in Nottingham and
district. The Society has a proud history of distinguished members whose works
can be seen in major national art institutions, whilst other members' works can
be found in practically every regional art gallery in the country, including
Nottingham Castle. The home of the Nottingham Society of Artists is St Luke's
House, pictured left, a three storey Art Deco building in Friar Lane, close to
the picturesque setting of Nottingham Castle in the centre of Nottingham. St
Luke's House was built for the Society in 1934. It has 4 floors including a
basement, gallery, education studio, and members studio. Our studio groups
practice Life, Clothed Model, Portrait and Still Life drawing and painting and
meet six days and three evenings a week.
