Weekly Art Groups

Did you know that there are a number of groups who meet on a weekly basis at the Sea Scout Hall in Yarralumla and that there is also a group which meets at the Ngunnawal Community Centre?

It would be great to also have a group in Tuggeranong. Is there anyone interested in co-ordinating such a group? These are very informal groups, new members are welcome, and there is absolutely no obligation to attend every week. Contact the co-ordinator regarding start dates and costs as this does vary according to whether or not there is a tutor and/or model etc. (The Sea Scout Hall is right on the lake on Alexandrina Drive, Yarralumla, opposite the intersection with Novar St)

Ngunnawal Group

Meets on Monday at the Ngunnawal Community Centre. The next meeting will be 12 February commencing 9.30 am. All persons who would like to meet and join a group of people who like to draw and paint are welcome. For further information ring Derek 62428239.
