OXFORDSHIRE ART AND CRAFT ORGANISATIONS The Oxford Art Society was founded in 1891 and is an umbrella for accomplished artists with diverse and exciting styles living in Oxfordshire, many of whom also exhibit nationally or internationally. We hold regular exhibitions, and welcome submissions towards membership at our annual Open Exhibition. Look for the initials OAS in this guide to find members’ work.
