Newsletter December 2020
Dear Members,
Owing to the current situation, Mettingham Village Hall is closed until further notice so the Monday Art Group and the Screen printing sessions are not being held at present. The Monday Group have been producing work from home during the summer, as have the rest of us I expect, and I will be including some pictures in the January Newsletter. If you have anything to brighten up the next Newsletter please send it to me.
The Repousse workshop - via zoom - was a great success :
We are planning another couple zoom of workshops, one in which I will show you how to make boxes out of card, brown parcel tape and newspaper. : This workshop will be on January 23rd from 2 'til 4. Let me know if you would like to join in and I'll let you know what you will need to gather together in advance.
As a follow up, on 6 February also from 2 -4, Mary Sprake will be doing a decoupage lesson showing how you can apply decoration using printed papers, old maps, illustrations from old books, for example. If you are interested in joining in please let Mary know.
To those of you who feel apprehensive about using zoom to attend, please don't. You will be sent a meeting number and pass code and it really is easy to join the meeting. I am a bit of a technophobe but even I can do it, so give it a go.
There are several empty shops in Bungay and we are exploring the possibility of displaying members art in the windows. We are also considering Art on the Railings during the Bungay Festival in the summer, if of course it is feasible. Also we are making enquiries about having an exhibition in the church if the ongoing works and Covid permit. Things being what they are it is difficult to make any firm arrangements at present but we will let you know if anything comes to fruition.
Bobby is still plugging away re. the chickens for the Chicken Roundabout. Ditchingham are very keen, have discussed it in council and are happy to see it happen. The Highways Authority are the fly in the ointment but Bobby has a few ideas to convince them it would be safe and people will not be so distracted that they drive into the roundabout or get run over taking photos! So despite there having been no news recently on this project it has not been forgotten.
With all good wishes for Christmas and especially the New Year
