Christchurch Arts Guild

'1948 - 2010'

The Christchurch Arts Guild (CAG) is a club for artists in & around the Christchurch area of Dorset whose current members & associate members have a diversity of interest and experience and who value the chance to further their knowledge & also exhibit together.

The Christchurch Arts Guild was founded over 60 years ago in 1948.

The Guild provides regular meetings where various activities take place such as Critiques, Artist Demonstrations, Life Classes / Workshop Evenings

After joining the guild as an 'Associate Member' you will have the opportunity to become a 'Full Member' by submitting your work and have it accepted by the committee (reviews of associate member's work is held bi-annually). It is then at the discretion of the Committee to invite new artists to become full members. The benefit of becoming a Full Member entitles you to submit work for the Red House Museum Exhibition (as well as the Priory House Exhibition which is open to all Guild members).

Members can have their very own webpage appear on this site (for a one off life time fee of just £15-00) under Gallery. You will need to submit a small piece about yourself, contact details as desired and a number of images of your art. Please contact if you need any assistance with this.
