In 1965 Jim Provost and Sam French together with Jack Sutton, Dr Ryan Tittle, Angela Devereaux and Marian Fagan set up the Greystones Art Group.

The main purpose of the group was, and still is today, to encourage amateur artists. Our aim is to advance our members artistic knowledge and skills through on-going lectures and demonstrations. In addition, we also facilitate an Annual Exhibition of paintings and other works of art, for all our members, both amateur and professional.
