The Arts Society Gravesend was formed so that people who enjoy learning about all aspects of the arts could get together and hear high quality lectures given by experts in their chosen field. Today, twenty six years on from that first meeting, we still aspire to inform and inspire our members with talks on subjects as diverse as the fine arts, sculpture, photography, THe architecture, jewellery, ceramics, glassware, textiles - the list is endless!
During the year we also arrange visits to places of interest, events and occasional tours of the UK and abroad.
Our members not only attend for the lectures though - they enjoy the friendly and lively atmosphere and we pride ourselves on offering a warm welcome to newcomers.
We would be delighted to see new faces at our lectures so if you think you would be interested in what we are offering, why not join us one morning? Contact our membership secretary on 07847 361756 in advance of the meeting to book a place or a zoom link. The fee for a visitor is £5.00
You can also contact us at

Lectures begin at 11 a.m. Coffee and tea are available from 10.15a.m. We ask that everyone is seated at 10.50 for notices so we can ensure that lectures start on time.
We meet on the second Tuesday in the month except in August or December when there are no meetings.
The annual membership fee for 2021 – 2022 is £40.00.
