Box Art Group

THE Group has enjoyed an interesting and varied year.

Meeting on Thursday afternoons, during term-time, the members produce a wide range of pictures, using any medium they choose and on any theme they select.

Two tutors advise and assist as required and occasionally set a competition which members can enter if they wish.

The competitions are very enjoyable, giving the opportunity to do something different and this year subjects have included autumn, tea, view inside your home, unusual use of colours.

This year members had a wonderful trip to the Gardens at Stourhead which were at their Spring best, and we have also enjoyed visits from outside speakers.

We are now looking forward to the new session which commences on September 10 and to exhibiting our work in Holy Trinity Church during the Minchinhampton Country Fayre on September 12, and also on September 13.

We will then be working towards our own ever popular annual exhibition/sale to be held in Box Village Hall on October 16 to 19.

We do have a few vacancies at present and are also looking for volunteers to sit for our portrait group (for a small remuneration).

If you are interested, please contact the membership secretary on 01453-832552.
