                "description": "The Isle of Man Art Society was founded in 1953 with 28 enthusiastic members. Founder members include Victor Kneale, Norman Howell, John H Nicholson, Bobby Moore, Jack Gawne, George Cowley, Harold (Dusty) Miller, Alec Quayle, Peter Chisholm (Art Master at Douglas High School for Boys) and George Crellin. Our membership has steadily grown and we now have over 300 members. \n\nWe met in various locations, including \n•\tIvanhoe Hotel, Douglas Promenade\n•\tThe Art School, Kensington Road, Douglas \n•\tBarrack St Church Hall, Drinkwater St, Douglas\n•\tClose Mooar, Marown \n•\tHanover St School, Douglas\n•\tA joiners workshop since demolished near the present Government Buildings\n•\tA room above Kissacks, Prospect Hill, Douglas\n\nbefore purchasing our present clubhouse Thie Ellyn, Withington Road, Douglas in 2000. This was formerly owned by the Jehovah’s Witnesses. \n\nThe first meeting was held at the Ivanhoe Hotel. The Presidents of the Society have been as follows:\n•\tWilliam Hoggatt\n•\tJohn  H Nicholson\n•\tVictor Kneale\n•\tLawrence Kermode\n•\tMargaret Oates\n\nOur present president Margaret Oates joined the Society in 1965, and has served the Society in various positions\n•\tCommittee Member 1983 – \n•\tTreasurer       - 1996\n•\tChairman 1996 – 2003\n•\tPresident 2003 (?) to date\n\nIn the late 90’s the decision was taken by the committee, including Margaret and Peter Oates, to purchase our own clubhouse at Thie Ellyn. A significant amount of money was raised by offering Life Membership to those who would donate £100 towards the purchase price.  About 75 members took up this opportunity, of whom 64 are still active members of the Society in 2013. \n\nThe Society has always been keen to exhibit the works of its members. The Easter Exhibition was held in the Villa Marina from    to 2009, and then moved to the Villa Marina Arcade in 2010, where it is still held. \n\nOur present membership includes famous artists such as Nancy Corkish, David Byrne, Paul Parker, Des Clague and Catherine James.\n\n"
