Art Palette

Entries for the Annual Art Group Exhibition should be submitted by 5pm this Friday the 20th October

There are still a couple of days left for you to hand your entry forms into Reception.

Your artwork does not need to be completed and handed in until between 5 and 7pm on Sunday the 12th November; so you have plenty of time for finishing touches and framing.

Entry and instruction forms can be found under our notice board in Reception, in the Art Studio and can be downloaded from the art pages of the Members website.

Online Framing

There are several online framing companies, the one I hear used most frequently by members is www.easyframe.co.uk These are good value and arrive within a week.
