Painting/Sketching days in suitable places. Most are
untutored, free and, hopefully, you will find some friends nearby. They
are both social and educational events. Others are run by art tutors for
which there will be a fee.
Starting times vary but for local venues its about 10:30a.m.. Finish times
vary as well but very often there is a Pub nearby and so make a day of
it!!
Do come along and join us to paint in company and enjoy inspiring locations.
We will start each day at 10.30. If you need any further information ring
Sandra Morris (023 8028 2344)

THE
PORTUGESE FIREPLACE.
A quiet bit of forest. Nothing spectacular but the unusual fireplace
and pleasant woodland. Should appeal to those who enjoy the trees.
For others there is a bridge and stream at Millyford Bridge where
we park. Leave Lyndhurst on the Christchurch road,turn right opposite
the Swan to Emery Down. At Emery Down take the first left turn after
the New Forest Inn and continue straight until you see the Millyford
Bridge car park on your right.
