The painting association ‘Neue Schenke Wolfen’ e. V. can now look back on a long tradition. For 67 years now, members of the association for amateur artists have been able to express themselves artistically. Under the leadership of the painter and graphic artist Walter Dötsch, the former drawing circle of the VEB Filmfabrik Wolfen gained a widely respected profile. In 1990, the former painting circle was renamed and officially registered as the independently operating ‘Neue Schenke Wolfen’ e. V. association. Since 1997, the members of the association have been working under the professional guidance of the painter and graphic artist Klaus-Dieter Ullrich from Halle (Saale).
