Petersfield Arts and Crafts Society (PACS) was formed in March 1934.  We currently have 270 members who live in or close to Petersfield in Hampshire.  We welcome new members, but have had to limit membership to those who live within a reasonable radius of Petersfield.

Our members carry out a wide range of crafts, including painting, pottery and woodturning/woodwork.  Please click on the 2010 or 2011 Annual Exhibition or Photo Gallery entries in the left hand column to see pictures of some of our members' work.

We hold monthly meetings, workshops and outside events in the summer months.  Please click here for the 2011/2012 programme.  Please note that extra activities have been added to the programme.
