The Creative Group encourages the establishment of local area-based groups to supplement the official programme with local visits, meetings and informal discussions.

Groups are established in the areas shown below:

This group of pictures is taken from the 2009 Print and Projected Image Exhibitions
and will change randomly each time the page is opened or refreshed (key F5).


If you would like help in setting up a Home Group in your area, please contact Ray Grover, our Home Groups Coordinator:

Advice on setting up a Local Group from one of our Members who successfully set up her local small Home Group can be read and downloaded here: Home Group Advice


Please be aware that Area Groups are home based and if you wish to attend, you should contact the appropriate Representative to ensure space is available. Every effort will be made to accommodate you, but some meetings are extremely popular and are quickly filled to capacity.
