Welcome to The Arts Society King's Lynn

At TASKL we aim to offer to everyone the opportunity to know more about the world of the arts in order to increase their pleasure and appreciation of art in all its aspects in a social and friendly setting.

Our annual seasons of nine talks are all given by recognised experts who discuss subjects as varied as classical and modern painting, sculpture and pottery, dance and music, the theatre, cinema and art from around the world.  (See the 'Lectures' page for details of the 2026/27 season).

In addition our members’ social programme includes organised trips to galleries, historic houses and artistic events, other social get-togethers and an Autumn Lunch in November at Congham Hall.

Members can also play an active part in encouraging art in the wider community through projects such as our highly successful Art Packs for Children project which we have run for the last five years for clients of our local foodbank. 

As part of the Arts Society of Britain our members also receive the AS magazine, with articles about events in the arts world and its “instant expert” emails.

Our talks take place at 2.30pm in the afternoon on the second Thursday of the month, from September to May, normally at West Winch Village Hall, but due to essential building work there we are temporarily moving to South Lynn Community Hall. There is ample free parking available. (See the 'Where We Meet' and 'News' pages for further details including a map and full address). We  shall return to West Winch as soon as the builders allow. 

If you are interested, but still uncertain about becoming a member, why not come along to any lecture at West Winch as a visitor?  The £10 visitor fee will be deducted from your membership fee if you decide to join us. You can also follow us on our 'The Arts Society King's Lynn' Facebook page for regular updates of our activities. 

We look forward to welcoming you.

With best wishes

Claire Smith and Jean Meldrum, Joint Chairs
