The Arts Society Hungerford is a member society of the National Association of Decorative and Fine Arts Societies (NADFAS) which is a worldwide organisation based on a love of the Decorative and Fine Arts.

Our Society started in January 2015 and we now have around 240 members. We enjoy a programme of lectures from first class speakers who are all experts in their field, covering a wide range of topics in the fine and applied arts, including architecture, furniture, music, ceramics, paintings and many others. In addition we have arranged visits to historic houses, museums and galleries and other places of interest. There are also Special Interest Days to look at a subject in greater depth.

As we have developed, we have engaged in other traditional Arts Society activities, including Young Arts, Church Recording and Heritage Vounteering. We are part of the Wyvern area, and further information on their events etc can be found on http://theartssocietywyvernarea.org.uk

Charitable Status

The committee is exploring the possibility of the Arts Society Hungerford becoming a registered charity. This would enable us to reclaim gift aid on subscriptions which could amount to several thousand pounds each year and provide other lesser advantages.
Members will soon receive an information sheet about the proposed changes and an Extraordinary General Meeting will held, possibly as soon as November, to vote on the matter.
