​

​​​​​​​​Ashton Art Group is a small friendly group of artists based in Ashton-In-Makerfield.  It is a lively

​amateur fine arts society and open to all artists and would-be artists from both Ashton and the surrounding areas.  We meet each Tuesday from 8.00-10.00 pm in the Community & Childcare

Centre formerly the YMCA Building on Hilton Street.  There are always somebody in this friendly and social group who is willing to give support and advice when you need it.

​New members aged 16 and over, experienced artists and complete beginners are equally welcome.  There are no entry qualifications other than an interest in art. 

​We run a wide variety of activities ranging from still life, portraiture, and life drawing throughout the year which gives members old and new a chance to try out new skills.
