Ancoats Visual Arts
If you are looking for a friendly, supportive art group then Ancoats Visual Arts is for you. Based in Ancoats, we encourage everyone who lives in Greater Manchester to join our group. Ancoats Visual Arts is a self-led art group run by member-volunteers for the benefit of members. Our aim is to encourage local people to get involved in drawing, painting, mixed-media and crafts while supporting each other in developing creativity and skills. Everyone, no matter their arts experience or skills level is welcome to join. The group gets involved in local projects that matter to them and work on a variety of different creative visual arts projects. The group is hosted and supported by Creative Art Courses at Hope Mill, Pollard Street.
We run a studio based art session every Wednesday 12-3pm in a fully equipped art studio. Members only need to bring their own art materials. Members are able to join in with a group project or continue with their own individual projects. During Covid lockdowns we offer online weekly art challenges available on the Facebook page.
