The Dorchester Art Club (DAC) is based in the Dorset County Town of Dorchester, in central Southern England. The surrounding area is known for its natural beauty, and for its literary associations with Thomas Hardy and William Barnes. The nearby coast is the first World Heritage Site in England, with many fossils of the Jurassic Age found in the Isle of Purbeck and at Lyme Regis.

The Club invites artists of any standard to join. Members benefit from reduced submission fees, and lower commission charges on any sales, when exhibiting at its two main annual exhibitions (one of which is limited to members only). Regular 'hard copy' Newsletters are produced to keep the membership informed, to supplement the details on this website.
