Art Club at Urmston Library

Come connect with others at our free informal art group for adults.

We can help you explore different techniques or you can simply come along and get creative!

We provide the creative space and materials but you are welcome to bring along your own.

From beginner to Picasso - all abilities are welcome.

No need to book, just come along on the day.
