Art Classes and Workshops

Thursday Afternoon Art

 

The Chestermere Fine Art Guild meets most every Thursday from 1 p.m.to 4 p.m. to paint, visit, share and inspire. We welcome new members and encourage you to drop in and meet us, paint with us and decide if you want to join us. You can visit a few times until you get a feel for the group.

Our annual dues are $70 per year. This gives you access to our art sessions and participation in the annual art show. There are regular art workshops or demonstrations (daytime and evenings) which you can participate in at a discount.

You do not have to be a great artist, just someone who wants to learn and participate.

We have watercolour artists, acrylic artists, artists who draw, and some who do it all.

If you want to you can just show up with your kit and art supplies.

If you have more questions, you can email us at ch*****************@***il.com
