Tunis
Welcome to IWG Tunis! The IWG (International Women's Group), Tunis, is a non-profit organisation for women from around the world, presently residing in Tunisia. Its easy, multicultural atmosphere attracts expat ladies to join the group. We share and enjoy good moments together. We have currently more than two hundred members from 43 countries. The focus of the IWG is to help the expat ladies to settle down in Tunis and feel at home. To achieve this, we have set up many activity groups within the IWG. It enables members to participate in small group activities of their own interest, and share experiences and information about Tunisia and their own nations with other members. Our activities are highlighted by the monthly IWG Coffee Mornings which offer a great opportunity to the members to make friends and explore their new home away from home. Members of the IWG actively participate in charity activities, and organize fund-raising bazaars in spring and winter. The funds raised through these are donated to different Tunisian charities to meet some of their financial needs.

On popular demand Sandhya is opening her Studio to Ladies keen on learning oil painting. The course is designed to suit beginners and advanced learners. The focus of the classes will be on painting alla prima but will draw also from traditional methods to strengthen drawing and composition skills and explore the techniques of old masters.

 Instruction is in English but for those speaking French the course will work just as well.

As those already painting with Sandhya informally will continue the course, the seats available are limited. Working women are encouraged to join the Saturday classes specially designed for them. Ladies over 60 years of age can explore also the option of 'visiting instructor' and paint at home with a complete individualized study program.
