ART COURSES AT THE STABLE GALLERY

Art courses are held throughout the year in the converted 18th century stables at Old Sleningford. All proceeds from fees are donated to a local charity, preferably by gift aid if possible.

As well as those courses listed there is a Life Class every Friday, and a Drawing and Painting Class every Tuesday for three 10-week terms from October to July.

There is an excellent well-equipped studio for indoor work. Classes consist of not more than 12 students, so as to ensure comfortable working conditions and full scope for individual attention.

The garden has many features which make it an inspiring place to paint. There is an old mill, a lake and islands, woodland, a walled kitchen garden, herbaceous borders, summer houses and also old farm buildings nearby. All this provides a rich variety of subjects for the artist.

Unless otherwise stated students are required to bring their own materials. Lists of "things to bring" and local accommodation if needed will be sent to you on enrolment.

The courses listed start at 10.00 am and close at 4.00 pm. An organically grown hot lunch is provided and tea and coffee are available throughout the day.

From Friday 18th January until - Sunday 10th February the Chantry House Gallery, Main Street, Ripley will be showing work done by this year's teachers.
