The Arts Society brings people together through a shared curiosity for the arts. Our events provide welcoming places – locally, nationally and globally – to hear expert lecturers share their specialist knowledge about the arts.

The Arts Society has 60,000+ members for contributing to and preserving our artistic heritage through volunteering and grants. The belief that the arts have the potential to enrich peoples’ lives is at the heart of everything we do.

We inspire, we do, we give.

The Arts Society is a 'reborn' form of the National Association of Decorative and Fine Arts. North Kent DFAS was formed early after the formation of NADFAS several decades ago.
