ART FOR PLEASURE
BRACKENWOOD GARDEN CENTRE, ABBOTS LEIGH
10.30am, THURSDAY, 9th FEBRUARY 2023
Are you interested in joining a group to paint or draw? No need to be professional, this is just an informal group to help each other, share ideas and easy painting styles, and enjoy a cup of tea or coffee and a friendly chat.
We need people to make up numbers to have a weekly 2-hour class at Brackenwood. Garden Centre starting early February so if you are interested contact Pam by email pamela.tarr@hotmail.co.uk phone 01275 568468 or mobile 07896 831762.
The cost is likely to be £5 a week to start with though it’s hoped we can reduce this if there is enough interest.
I do hope you can join us.
Pam
