EXHIBITION OPENING

At 9am everything was ready for the handing in of our pictures for the Exhibition. The Hanging Team work hard preparing for this day and it is thanks to their hard work that we have an exhibition. At 7-30 pm our chairman Kate introduced Alison Board who had kindly agreed to officially open the exhibition and we could see all the results of a year's work on the stands. A big "thank you" is due to all members who attended and made the evening such a success and to all those involved in organising the exhibition and helping during the coming week.

A MESSAGE FROM DI ALEXANDER RE. EXHIBITION OPENING

"The Committee are delighted to be able to inform you that ALISON BOARD, the Dorset professional artist who gave us such a wonderful and entertaining demonstration several months ago, has very kindly agreed to come and open our Summer Exhibition at the PREVIEW EVENING on 

FRIDAY, 19TH AUGUST at 7.30 p.m.  It would therefore be wonderful if members could show their appreciation of her interest in seeing our work by coming along and supporting the occasion.  She commented at the demonstration evening what a great group we were and how she had enjoyed herself.  This is our chance to prove to her how right she was!

 

Check out her website again   www.alisoncboard-fineart.co.uk  There are also several great video demonstrations on Youtube
