In October 1976 a small group of volunteers got together to bring a programme of 'arts' to Countesthorpe and Blaby.

​

Based loosely at the new Countesthorpe College they were regarded as 'the art wing' of the College and so the story continues......................a small group of volunteers continues to provide a programme of all things arty for the good folks of Countesthorpe and Blaby.

 

For many years funding was provided by subsidised use of the College and the returns from a very successful Craft Market.

Over the years things changed and we are now more or less self funded, mainly from the Craft Market it must be said.

​

However, we continue and we spread the love by providing artists and bands at other village events and like to support anything arty, which happens in Countesthorpe.
