PAINT OUT DAYS

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 and we usually leave around 12.30 to 1.00. If you need any further information ring Sandra Morris (023 8028 2344)
