Group Information
The City of Parramatta Art Society (CPAS) is the longest running art society in New South Wales, being formed in 1950 by the then Mayor of Parramatta, Eric Mobbs. The aim of the society is to encourage, promote and foster appreciation of arts throughout the local community. They encourage emerging artists of all ages to develop their skills and to participate in their regular activities which include workshops, demonstrations and art classes, held at their studio.
The society provides a friendly environment and gives members the opportunity to exhibit their work at regular exhibitions and at the Society's Art Gallery "The Hunter Street Gallery of Fine Arts".
