SCARNING ART GROUPS

Art classes were started in Scarning in March 2001. Classes are on Wednesdays and Thursdays in the Village Hall from 9 to 12 in the morning. The charge is £4 per session, which includes tea, coffee and biscuits. Artists of all standards are welcome to come along. Bi-annual exhibitions have been held in the church; these alternate with the Flower Festivals. Members’ work is shown together with their own choice of paintings, some of which include sketches and paintings done during our summertime ‘field days out’.

Previous exhibitions held in 2001, 2003, 2005 and 2007 have been most successful with 20% of the sales money going into church funds. Members have also given generously at sales times in putting all proceeds to Dereham Cancer Care. For more information see here

SCARNING ALLOTMENTS

The village's allotments are run by the Scarning Fuel Allotment charity and cost from £6 per annum. Unfortunately there are currently no plots available. For more information or to be put on the waiting list, please contact Ken Steward on 820122.

ARCADIAN CLUB

The Arcadian Club was formed to study the life and works of Reverend Augustus Jessopp, Scarning's late Victorian rector. The club now meets as part of Dereham Antiquarian Society. For more information, please contact Tony Jones on 820580.

SCARNING BOWLS CLUB

The club was formed over fifty years ago. At present we have 25 members and play regularly in the Dereham and District League and the Elmham and District League. We also have club competitions. After the Annual General Meeting in January a fixtures list will be decided. The membership subscription is £10 per season. We play on the Bowling Green behind the village hall.

We had a very nice pavilion for the bowls club adjacent to that for the football and tennis building on the playing field. Sadly both of these were burned down in 2008. All that remained were the concrete foundations until the new pavilion was completed in July 2009.
