About Spring in the Air

ArtStand members are now busily planning and preparing for this year’s events. Our first event of the year will be a new Art Exhibition and sale of work at Strutts Centre, Belper on Saturday 6th April 2024, with a preview evening on Friday 5th April, from 6.00 – 8.00 pm, when you will be welcome to join us for a glass of wine.

This will be followed by a week at Haddon Hall Gatehouse, Bakewell, commencing Monday 8th July 2024, when a small group of “ArtStanders and Friends” will be showing and selling their work throughout the week. Admission to the Gatehouse is free. We look forward to seeing you there.

Tne Artstand group of artists was formed in 2019 to celebrate creativity in Crich and Whatstandwell. Our members have diverse talents ranging from fine arts – felting, watercolours, oils, acrylics and ceramics – to craft work, woodworking, jewellery–making and photography. Many members of the group are well-known professional artists, who exhibit their work widely across Derbyshire.

As a group we are keen to get involved in local events and work towards developing the Arts in the community. Several of our members run Masterclass workshops, aiming to generate greater interest in their chosen media and develop creativity. If this sounds interesting, then why not contact the group Co-ordinator David Hunns Tel: 07835 886595 or email enquiries to [email protected] for more information.
