Small informal groups meet approximately once a month to discuss each others’ work, plan exhibitions or talk about anything of mutual interest. The structure, content, times, dates, and frequency of the meetings are left to the individual groups to decide for themselves. You are very welcome to phone a coordinator and go to one or two meetings to see whether you enjoy them. Many people find them to be useful sounding boards for developing their own work. You do not necessarily have to choose a group near your home – any member can participate in any group.
