Warminster art group meets on the first and third Wednesday of the month in Lakeside Community Centre in the lovely Lakeside Pleasure Grounds.
It's led by artist Jane Greenwood and organised by Cathy Lawrence, our community services coordinator in West Wiltshire.
Our art and craft groups are friendly, relaxing, therapeutic and fun and you do not need to be 'good at art' to join in!
People living with dementia and a family carer create their own projects under Jane's guidance. We work at a leisurely pace with plenty of time for conversation and connection. No previous experience of art is necessary and everyone works at their own pace. Activities include a variety of art and craft projects, including painting, drawing, collage, printing, crafts, clay modelling and more.
Family carers are encouraged to join in to create in their own right and trained volunteers are on hand to lend support as needed.
If you'd like to volunteer at the group, please call Annie Clayton on 01225 776481 or email Annie.
If you'd like to come along as a group member, or for more information, please call Cathy on 01380 739055, or book your place online using the form below.
Please note, to help towards our costs and materials we ask everyone to pay £6 'on the door' (or you can use our flexible Pay what you Can scheme).
"Mum really enjoys going to Warminster Art Group and her house is decorated with all the things she’s made there. When the group isn’t running Mum will ask about it, it’s the one permanent fixture in her memory."
