Visual Artsmembers

The Bay Art Gallery is a not-for-profit organisation offering gallery space showcasing emerging artists/graduates/students living within the south east. The gallery was set up approximately 7 years ago with a view to promoting visual arts within the community and is run by the CT6 Contemporary Arts Group. The building is very centrally placed – 47a William Street, Herne Bay (opposite the main car park in William Street).

A membership society formed as a registered charity to celebrate Canterbury's history. Its first successful project has been the statues of King Ethelbert and Queen Bertha unveiled in 2006.

Members meet weekly on Wednesdays, between September and May, to view each others work, discuss all aspects of photography and hold workshops to enlighten and encourage members on taking pictures and post manipulation and enhancement of the images using Photoshop. The society also has in-house competitions and challenges with other clubs. New members are always welcome. Meetings start at 7.30pm in Room 3, the Norfolk Building, Kent College, Whitstable Road, Canterbury CT2 9DT

The Society, which was founded in 1968, has approximately 130 members. They are professional and amateur artists/sculptors, meeting weekly for demonstrations, talks, practical evenings and exhibiting annually.
