We have a studio and gallery in Concord where we run weekly art classes to suit all abilities. Established in 1964, the Drummoyne Art Society, commonly known as DAS, is one of the oldest and most prestigious Art Societies in Sydney. Although central to the Drummoyne area, DAS members are from surrounding suburbs including the north shore and central and south coasts. DAS fulfils the needs of the l
ocal art community by holding bi-annual art exhibitions, along with monthly art demonstrations by well established Sydney artists, weekly art classes and group painting workshops. DAS gallery57, at 57A Wellbank St, cnr Clermont Ave Concord, is our gallery, art studios, teaching, administration space and permanent home base. The gallery features a rotating exhibition of award winning members artworks for viewing and sale, along with art demonstrations and classes for both DAS members and the community. The gallery is free entry, and we invite you to visit and discover the variety of talent within our Society. DAS is a founding member of the Combined Art Societies of Sydney. Our members attend art tuition at the annual Art In Action weekend in the Blue Mountains, and the Art of Sydney exhibition at Sydney's Darling Harbour. CASS our cottage retreat in Kandos, NSW's Central West, is shared with other members from the Combined Art Societies of Sydney. The cottage provides opportunities to stay and paint plein air in the beautiful surrounding countryside. Members are encouraged to enter and showcase their works in the numerous art shows in and around Sydney. Many of our members are past winners, gaining recognition and good sales records. DAS is a friendly group of like-minded individuals, and new members are always welcome any time of year.
