The Arts Society Portsdown was formed in 1984 to provide its members with an increased understanding, appreciation and enjoyment of Art in its broadest sense. We hold lectures at 2pm on the second Thursday of the month for ten months of the year (we don’t meet in August and September). The lectures are held at The Spring in Havant.

Guests and non-members are welcome to attend lectures by arrangement with the Membership Secretary. A voluntary donation of £5 is requested which may be declared as Gift Aid. Study days, outings and tours are also arranged to achieve our aims and in the hope that members derive pleasure and fun from all our activities.

The Society is a charity and encourages and supports Arts Volunteering by sponsoring art projects in local schools. Some volunteers assist in conserving artistic treasures locally.
