Location Map (Courtesy of Multimap.com)

You can bring whatever art medium you prefer. Most people who attend use acrylics, pastels or sketching pencils. A limited number of easels and drawing boards are provided free of charge for the evening. If you have your own easel you can bring it along.

The costume models used on the Monday sessions tend to pose for an hour at a time. From May 2009, on the first Thursday of every month, the life drawing sessions will tend to do short sets of poses (5 minutes per pose) for the first hour, then a set pose for the final hour. Remember it is your club, so active help and good ideas from you are always welcome.

Each art session last for approx two hours with a 15 min break in-between.

Tea & coffee is provided (25p per cup)

If you are interested in joining after your first visit, you can either pick-up a membership form at Stockport Art Gallery or print one off
this website (Go to the APPLICATION FORM link).

It is advisable to become a member if you wish to attend more than one art session as you will be able to benefit from a monthly newsletter, eligible to submit artwork to the Guild's annual exhibition etc...

Parking at the venue
You can park either in Stockport College car park,
which is free of charge during the evenings.
