Wolverhampton Decorative and Fine Arts Society

Welcome to Wolverhampton DFAS!

We are a very active group with a diverse series of events and projects that occur throughout the year. With around 300 members, we enjoy many different aspects of the arts through lectures, visits and special projects. Meetings are held every second Monday of the month at Linden House, Tettenhall Road.

Founded in 1968 by Patricia Fay, NADFAS is an arts-based charity, with over 340 local Decorative and Fine Art Societies in the UK and Mainland Europe, of which Wolverhampton DFAS is one. All NADFAS Societies subscribe to the aims and objects of the National Association: the advancement of arts education and appreciation and the preservation of our artistic heritage.

NADFAS promotes these aims through lectures on the fine and decorative arts in their widest sense, through study days, visits and tours and through volunteering activities, such as Church Recorders, Heritage Volunteers and Young Arts and the giving of grants.

NADFAS volunteers learn new skills, while making friends and benefiting the community at large. Young Arts Volunteers provide exciting projects and activities aimed at fostering a love of the arts amongst the young. At national and local level, NADFAS also gives grants to aspiring artists and craftsmen of the future.
