Brief Description

We are a friendly and informal networking group of professional and amateur artists including painters, potters, designers, textile artists, writers, sculptors, furniture makers, print makers, photographers, stained glass and teachers.

Profile

North Devon Arts was formed in 1998 from a need expressed by rurally isolated artists in the area, of wanting to feel connected, meet like-minded people and feeling they could be a greater voice for the Arts in North Devon by joining forces.

NDA is a constituted, membership group (with over 200 members), meeting on the second Wednesday evening of each month, usually at Broomhill Art Hotel. These meetings are open to all interested in the Arts, with a charge of £4 for non-members. Each meeting has a subject and topics are enormously varied. In the past we've had formal presentations by guest speakers including Peter Randall Page and Chris Chapman, plus informal discussions on aspects of art, poetry readings, demonstrations and a performance of dance. Arrive at 7.15 pm to network with members over a delicious hot buffet supper - phone the Broomhill Art Hotel to book supper on 01271 850 262.

The annual exhibition, held in January/February of each year, is the highlight of our year. Generously hosted by the Broomhill Art Hotel in Muddiford, it gives all members the opportunity to exhibit their work in an internationally renowned contemporary art gallery and to gain support from colleagues and the public and a chance for the cross-fertilisation of ideas and future collaborations.

Events

We have a variety of regular activities; annual winter and summer exhibitions, open to all members, and our monthly meetings. Other events include projects with Appledore Arts Festival and the North Devon Festival.
