Art Circle

Established and run by artists, for artists

Numerous artists in Bath work in isolation and often with limited interaction with other art practitioners.

In response, the Art Circle was established to create opportunities for expanding their network, sharing their work, asking questions and getting to know more about the local art scene.

Keeping things simple

The sessions of the Art Circle are:

  • Free to attend. No subscriptions or joining fees.
  • No booking required. No need for long term commitments.
  • Held in a central location (in Bath).
  • After office/retail hours (for those working contract hours).
  • Sharing the latest and upcoming art events in Bath.
  • Opportunities to exhibit your artwork.

How to join

If you wish to join the Art Circle you just need to provide your contact details, so you are notified for the date and venue of the upcoming sessions. No booking or any payments are required.
