Art Centre Association, Javea
The aim of the Art Centre is to encourage both beginners and experienced artists alike, by offering tuition in a wide variety of traditional and contemporary arts and crafts. The Art Centre is in a quiet country house in Calle Lago Tana, Javea, not too far away from ‘Inn On The Green’ bowling club. There is easy parking and wheelchairs are welcome. Lorely and Glyn Griffiths have retired after more than 35 years working around the World. Glyn had previously been involved in telecommunications (now promoted to car park attendant and janitor for the Art Centre). This will be the 4th Art Association Lorely will be running. She started the first Design College in Nairobi more than 30 years ago, and finally was looking after the Art Society in Dubai for many years. Subjects available are: Painting in Oil, Acrylic, Watercolour, Pastel, Drawing, Mixed Media, Portraiture, Creative Textiles and Restoration of Porcelain. Although the Art Centre is a non-profit association, there will be a flat charge of 20 Euros per 3-hour session, whatever the subject, this pays the qualified teachers and covers the overheads. Usually groups will meet (3hrs per session) once a week, in the mornings, 10am to 1pm. We will always welcome enthusiastic and experienced people to teach any existing or new subject. Didn’t you always say when you had time, you would learn to paint. In addition the Art Centre Association has studio/meeting rooms available for ANY group or club who want somewhere to meet on a ‘one off’ or regular basis or, who just want to come along and make a mess. Fully equipped studios with tables, comfortable chairs, easels, good lighting, etching press, paper roll, white spirit, art & antiques reference library, car park, central heating, wheelchair access, coffee lounge, ‘choccy bikkys’ and as much tea/coffee/softies as you can drink. All of the above included free for €5 per head per morning or afternoon session. As this is a non-profit association, if the meeting is cancelled you don’t have to pay.
