Virtual Members Exhibition 24th and 25th October 2020
To replace our Arts and Heritage Trail which could not take place in May due to the lockdown, we will be holding a Virtual Members Exhibition where our artists will be able to promote and sell their work to the public online. Members will be contacted in the next few weeks with details on how they can take part in the exhibition, and we will give you more information in the September newsletter and on our website so keep an eye on your emails and watch this space.
