WELCOME TO NADFAS EAST SURREY AREA

The National Association of Decorative & Fine Arts Societies (NADFAS) was launched in 1968 by Patricia Fay with 11 societies and has expanded to over 330 societies in the UK, 10 in Europe, 28 in Australia and 2 in New Zealand, with 90,000 members worldwide. NADFAS works towards promoting and preserving the arts through lectures, events, study days, visits and tours at National, Area and Society level. The Association's concerns include voluntary activities to maintain historic buildings, recording churches and their contents and working towards developing the arts for the young.

The Area Chairman represents the Area on the National Advisory Council, speaking and raising issues of policy on its behalf. A written report is made to the Trustees of NADFAS annually, detailing major events, achievements and challenges within the Area.

The Area Team offers support to the 15 NADFAS societies in East Surrey through Area Meetings, Education events, an annual Programme Planning forum, Training for new and potential committee members and with coordinating Heritage Volunteers, Church Recording and Young Arts groups.

Each society in East Surrey organises a full programme of lectures, study days, visits and tours and contact details for individual societies can be found on the “Societies” pages.

We look forward to welcoming you to one of our societies or an Area event in the near future.
