WELCOME!

This is the Seaton & District Art Society.

The Society is based in Seaton on the South Devon Coast giving a wonderful advantage to members of having both the sea, beach and the beautiful Devon countryside for their inspiration.

We have a full calendar of events this year.

In the afternoon of the 1st Monday of each month, we have a demonstration by different professional artists (Hashim Akib pictured) at Colyford Village Memorial Hall, Valley View Ex24 6QJ. The demonstrations or talks are wide-ranging covering watercolour, acrylic, oils, inks, coloured pencils and also includes lino printing, sculpture & collage, and much more. Check out the Demonstrations page.

On the other three Monday afternoons (2 – 4 pm) of each month, excluding August, we meet up for an art session we call ‘the Monday Club’ at the Seaton Methodist Church Valley View, EX12 2ST. See more on the Monday Club page! Everybody is welcome to attend to either venue regardless if you are a member or not, although there maybe a small charge.

During August we take a break to have our Annual Exhibition in Seaton, which is open to the public (10 – 18 Aug 2024). Many members take this opportunity to display their stunning items and sell their work.

Weve been honoured to have been asked by The Old Bakehouse B&B guest house, Colyton, to showcase our members fantastic artwork to their customers. Their guests will see the Society’s members work in the main areas of the B&B, which are for sale. The owner Steve Warren, has written a great blog highlighting our talented artists, You can read all about it on their website at www.colytonbakehouse.com/blog
