Formerly known as Bristol Savages - after lots of reflection and consultation both externally and within, we've changed our name after 116 years to Bristol 1904 Arts.  A NEW name that reflects our home base "Bristol"; our origins in "1904" and what we are about, "Arts". 

The new name simply says it all.

At the same time, going forward, we will welcome ladies to our membership.  Ladies were always a big part of our society, with two set piece dinners in the annual schedule,  involvement in the Interest Groups e.g. Walkers, Golf, Avian groups as well as the open "Let's Talk" mornings, Art Classes  etc.  Historically, when the society had up to a five year waiting list for entry there seemed not to be the urgency to admit women, at the time.

But times have changed and we hope to attract independent women members as Artists (Red Feathers), Musicians & Entertainers (Blue Feathers) and general members (Green Feathers) as well as perhaps some interested spouses of existing members.

We have commenced decommissioning some of the more historically masculine elements of our Society and Club, such as the trophy animal heads and ancient weaponry to make our events and premises more welcoming for all. 

So indeed WELCOME TO ALL!
