Darlington Society of Arts was founded in 1922 to stimulate interest and appreciation of the arts in Darlington. The Society’s activities include: Saturday outdoor painting excursions in the summer, annual exhibition in October and a programme of club nights on Wednesday evenings at 7.30 pm in the Arts Studio at the Arts Centre for three terms during the year, when members have the opportunity to see demonstrations, take part in painting or craft related workshops, work from models/still life, or continue with their own work. Visitors are welcome at all our events.
This exhibition illustrates the wide range of styles, subject matter and interests of the society forming a unique collection of work. The artworks include watercolours, acrylics, pastel, collages and oils featuring floral work, landscapes, seascapes, portraits and more, reflecting the variety and quality that has come to characterise this historic Darlington Society.
