Currently there are more than 250 members of the Society drawn from all over the UK.  Approximately half live in Surrey; most are active makers, from emerging sculptors to professionals.

​

Joining the Society is simple.  There is no ‘vetting’ process.  There are two main categories of membership – ‘Exhibiting’ or ‘Non-exhibiting’. When you apply, you can choose your category and change this status at any time through the members’ area of the website.

 

Benefits of membership include the opportunity for sculptors to exhibit at some of the most prestigious venues in southern England, including two world-famous Royal Horticultural Society Gardens and many other beautiful and popular venues.  (In recent years the Society has also exhibited at Fulham Palace, Painshill Park, Guildford Cathedral and Beaulieu.)

The Society also runs a lecture programme where famous sculptors come along and describe their work and motivation.  Such names as Peter Randall-Page, Angela Connor and Sean Henry have addressed the Society.

If you want to know why you should join, then ask any of the members (via the Artists page) or email the Membership Secretary at:
