With 19 Societies across Cheshire, Cumbria, Lancashire, Merseyside, parts of North Wales, and the Isle of Man, our Area has a rich variety of opportunities to enjoy and engage with the arts.

Our Area Support Team is here to make your experience with the Society as enjoyable as possible, whether you’re a long-standing member or new to our community. We support local Societies through Area meetings, educational events, and by coordinating Arts Volunteering, Heritage Volunteers, and Trails of Discovery activities.

Our goal is to promote the appreciation and study of all aspects of the arts and to help preserve our artistic heritage. We organize lectures, visits, tours, and special interest days, along with our volunteer activities. Non-members are also welcome to join us for special interest days and to volunteer in arts and heritage projects.

We look forward to welcoming you!
