Chairman’s Newsletter
August/September 2016
Introduction
As I write this letter the annual exhibition has only just opened, it has, however, been a slow start, probably because it is so hot. It will be hard to imagine this high temperature when I write a full report in the next newsletter near Christmas.
Here is a list of all the autumn activities – the talk programme and meeting dates of the painting/life groups. The Saturday Workshop schedule is a separate flyer.
