Stories from Our Members

Drawn to the Valley was formed by artists themselves over 20 years ago, mainly as a support network, but also in order to promote the Tamar Valley area, bringing the area of natural beauty to life through art.

“Since joining Drawn to the Valley I have expanded my creative practise, which came from working with other artists in different mediums. I have been able to show my work more extensively and had opportunities to learn new skills.”
Juliet Cornell

Frequently asked questions

What are the benefits to Drawn to the Valley Members?

If you become a member of Drawn to the Valley, you get your own online gallery page and an opportunity to sell your work in our online shop. You can get your work in a number of exhibitions each year and participate in our annual open studios / art trail events. In addition as a member you get access to artist drawing days, workshops and mentoring sessions, as well as networking and social activities. The drawing days are usually free of charge; members can draw, paint and photograph their surroundings while meeting and catching up with other members. These take place throughout the spring/summer months. There are also business skills workshops and various informal coffee mornings, free to all members. You will get regular communication through our newsletter where grant funding, commissions/residencies and national exhibition calls are published.
