Upcoming

Friday 9th January – Members Visit to The Box

On January 9th a group will be visiting ‘The Box’ to view the ‘Remember, Respond, Resist’ Exhibition, which explores memory, conflict and activism and features the work of 23 different artists, including Royal Academicians Grayson Perry and Goshka Macuga.

There is a limit of 15. We will travel independently and meet there at 10.30am. If space allows, we can enjoy lunch together at The Box café.  If you haven’t already done so, those interested please email sue.denny@talk21.com.  There are 5 places still available.

Our Next workshop will be:

 Saturday 17th January with Emma Wright –  Loose, Semi Abstract Land/Seascape

As we were unable to accommodate everyone who wanted to attend Emma’s workshop in Oct we are very pleased that she is coming back to run another on 17^th Jan.
Emma previously taught art at Plymouth College but now concentrates on her own artwork. Working with just blue, red, yellow and white acrylic paint we will once again be encouraged to ‘play’ following her demonstration, and experiment with colour mixing, painting knives, rollers, collage etc., before starting on our own paintings. Members who attended in Oct found the experience both liberating and inspiring.

Cost £30 members    £35 Non-Members  

We still have a few spaces available on this workshop.

To reserve a place for this workshop, please email: contact@yealmartsociety

January 22nd at 2pm – Annual General Meeting – Community Room, Yealmpton C.C.
Please come along and support your committee whilst enjoying tea/coffee and cake!
We view this event more as a social event as it is a good opportunity for members, especially new members to meet the committee and put faces to names.
We promise to keep business at a minimum!   

We are however looking for a volunteer to take over from Sue Barnes as Publicity Secretary. This entails sending notices of our various events to the local Parish magazines and if possible producing posters which can be laminated and distributed by committee and members around the villages.   

The AGM paperwork including a nomination form will be sent out shortly.
