Who We Are

We are focused on building relationships through learning, experience and participation
Stevenage Arts Society (formerly known as Artists' Co-operative) is an active amateur art Society with working groups meeting on most days of the week. The society has its own art studio and pottery in its headquarters at Springfield House in Stevenage.
The Artists' Co-operative was conceived by a group of Stevenage painters and born in 1968 with the stated aim of "Fostering the Arts in Stevenage". A totally amateur, non-political and democratic organization, the Society is now a limited company and is run by an executive committee which is elected each year at the annual general meeting.
Membership of the Society is open to anyone interested in participating in the our creative activities. An annual subscription of £30 is levied and anyone attending working group meetings is asked for a small fee of £2 at each attendance (£5 for glass fusing). Members are kept fully informed of the full programme of Events and Activities organised throughout the year.
