We will be continuously expanding this section to provide information on a number of the major players in the nature art and related fields including, art societies, art galleries, magazines and nature art publishers. We will also be enabling visitors to submit their information on these organizations to steadily expand the data base and to make the frequently used reference sites easily accessible.

Meanwhile, we have provided  links to important associations and societies who we would hope to cooperate with in their pursuit of promoting the interests of their artist communities.

Each year, the art society has held its fabulous annual exhibition of wildlife art, which is housed in the wonderful listed building 'Marwell Hall'. The 2004 exhibition was opened by celebrity presenter Anneka Rice.

New members are actively welcomed, irrespective of experience and membership offers a great atmosphere and an unrivalled package of benefits!!
