About Us

​
Holyrood Art Club started in 1957.
​
We are a friendly Club, offering tutor led classes in either combined draped life / portraiture and 'do your own thing'. If you've taken an art class previously, and wish to continue to draw and paint, then join us. Beginners are welcome.
​
In addition, we have talks & demonstrations by professional artists, crit nights, painting outings, and an Annual Exhibition. In January each year there is a Social Evening.
​
All our evening meetings take place on Wednesdays, from October to April from 7.30 pm to 9.30pm, with an interval for tea & coffee.
​
New members are very welcome, and you can come to any of our talks & demos, to meet us, and learn more about the Club, before you join.
