We celebrated our 80th anniversary in 2008. For eighty years members, past and present, have been pivotal in promoting the visual arts in Folkestone and the south east. In those eighty years we have grown both in number of members as well as in the number and quality of the works exhibited. Many eminent artists, from Gerald Norden to Sir Winston Churchill, have been past members.

The 2009 Spring Exhibition was one of the largest that we have presented with over 250 works of art on view. It was also one of our most successful exhibitions with a record number of artworks sold.

Our Autumn Exhibition will open on Wednesday 4 November and continue through to Sunday 22 November 2009 at The Grand on The Leas at Folkestone.. See ‘Next exhibition’ for full details and opening times.

Over 250 works of art were on display at the Spring Exhibition. Most were for sale at reasonable prices. Come to our Autumn Exhibition 2009 for more great art. Click here.
