Group Information
In 1977 a group of ladies attending evening art classes at the Kyneton High School decided to start afternoon meetings at the Presbyterian Sunday School Hall. This was the beginning of the Kyneton Art Group with just 11 members.
The group flourished under the thoughtful care of Stephen West who worked with a grant from the Victorian Arts Council and initiated the move into the Red Brick Hall as their regular meeting place.
The primary aim of the group is to provide fellowship and a studio space with opportunity for artistic creativity.
The group is a friendly one, not intimidating. Members work in any media available and their artistic experience is varied from beginners to professional artists. The group is also diverse in its styles and media. They provide great support and encouragement within the group.
