Art Society Workshops


Saturday 28th June 2008 at the Markwell Pavilion

Several of our members enjoyed quite a new experience in a collage workshop run by our own Richard Francis, a highly successful artist, now living in Suffolk, but continuing to give us his support as our President  Showing us his great expertise in using this different technique, we managed some very impressive artwork. 
If you are interested in joining our workshops please contact Barbara Thomson or Mavis Page for details. Tel 01279 657370
