Spring Session Classes
5 Week Spring Classes 2025
This spring we will be running a short 5 week block of classes on Thursday afternoons and Thursday evenings which are open to all Broughty Ferry Art Society members on a pay as you go basis so you don't have to sign up for the whole block.
We have 2 tutors running the afternoon class so we have organised a program with a range of tutorials which can be found below. It is not necessary to take part and guidance and support will still be available for those who want to work on their own artwork during the class times.
Classes will run from 24th April until 22nd May.
Thursday Afternoon - 1.30pm - 4.00pm
Tutors - Alison Whyte and Aga Drewniak
Thursday Evening - 6.00pm until 8.30pm
Tutor - Ossie Paesano
Class cost is £7 per session payable on the day
Please note your interest at classes@broughtyferryartsociety.co.uk and we will send you further information when it becomes available.
