Free Friday morning art group at the library where attendees bring their own materials and meet like-minded people.
Friday Art Group meets at Newby & Scalby Library on Friday 4 December, from 10:15 to 11:45am. It's a free session to join, and the only thing you need to bring is your own materials. The idea is simple: you turn up with your paints, pencils or whatever you're working with, and spend the morning making things alongside other people doing the same. There's no teaching involved, so you work on your own project at your own pace, with the company of other artists around you.
It's worth knowing a bit about where this sits. Newby & Scalby Library is a community library run by volunteers, and it's more of a hub than just a place to borrow books. They run free regular events and clubs, there's a magazine swap, and a garden with games for children. They also have second-hand books and jigsaws for sale, so if you're in the area, there's plenty more to do than just the art group.

If Friday mornings don't work for you, there's a second option. The library also runs a Saturday Art Group on Saturday mornings from 10am to 12noon, which is also free and involves no teaching. Between the two, there's a good window of time to get some work done, whether you're a regular or just fancy a one-off session. Both are free to join, and in both cases, you bring your own materials. The Friday session runs from 10:15 to 11:45am at Newby & Scalby Library, 450 Scalby Road, Scarborough, YO12 6EE.
