Information for Members:
(THIS SECTION WILL HAVE SPECIFIC DETAILS LATER)
- OAG 2027 Calendar entries and deadline:
Entries are invited around early June, submitted by email, max 2 or 3 per Member. The last day for entries is usually in early July. Each subject title must relate to a named place in Rutland, but can be an animal or bird etc, as long as its place name is included. Each entry must be preferably unframed, preferably unsigned, and in landscape format (not portrait upright). Pictures illustrating seasonal aspects are particularly welcomed. Our Calendar usually goes to our printers in August for typically 200 copies and in the Autumn is marketed by Liz and Bruce via our usual outlets, primarily Walkers Bookshop in Oakham High Street. Members can buy copies at the cost price.
- Demonstrations & Workshops typically run over recent years at our Monday sessions:
- Peter Barker RSMA of Uppingham (pastels or oils demonstrations)
- Phil Biggs of Spalding (watercolours workshops)
- Andrea Naylor formerly of Whitwell (pastels workshops)
- Outings and Summer Lunch:
Coach outing organised by Welland Valley Art Society of Stamford to art galleries in London on a Sunday in the summer (any details to follow). Their proposed outings for 2024 and 2025 sadly never got off the ground. Hopefully we can join one in 2026.
Summer lunch at Rutland Water Golf Club again to be held in June or July (details to follow). In 2025 we held it on Monday July 15th.
- How to get your Artworks into your own online gallery (under Artworks above)::
- EITHER bring your artworks, framed or unframed, to a Monday art session and ask Bruce to photograph them on his iPad for processing
- OR attach them three or four at a time to emails and send to Bruce for processing, along with title and medium used. They can be of any age.
