Salisbury Sketchers

Salisbury Sketchers are a branch of the Salisbury Group of Artists who meet once a month on a Sunday afternoon throughout the summer, to draw and paint at local Salisbury venues or nearby locations. There is no extra charge for these events and friends are welcome to accompany members. No specific skills are needed for these enjoyable and sociable afternoons.

OUR NEXT OUTING

Salisbury Sketchers will meet at 2pm in the car park/courtyard area of Breamore Estate.
From the main A338 Salisbury to Ringwood Road, turn off and follow the signs to Breamore House, parking in the designated car park near the courtyard where the cafe, toilets and farm shop are situated. From there the way to the church and the house are signposted. The house is only open to the public by an organised tour, but there are good views of it across the field from the public footpath.

Our Last Outing
The Secret Garden, Bourne Hill, Salisbury
Sunday 22 March
An enjoyable afternoon spent in the Secret Garden sketching together on our first outside visit of the year.
The garden is currently full of joyous Spring flowers and is a relaxing quiet place in which to draw and paint. Looking through the outstandingly white trunks of the silver birches, it was possible to see through the branches to St Edmund’s church now used as an Arts Centre, and this provided a subject for some members.
