With sadness but many happy memories, we announce that our well-loved Queen St Hall venue has been sold. The current uses will cease at the end of November.
It is impossible to recap in one post the sum of all the wonderful group activities and cultural events that happened here over the last seven years. We took over at the end of 2014 an endeavour to run a community hall under private ownership. It has been whole-heartedly embraced by so many in Wingham and beyond!
Rob and I can't thank enough everyone who came through the doors in the spirit of friendship, seeking fulfillment for self and others, a kinder loving world, music, art and well-being, and generously contributing to the hall costs as well as many charities we supported along the way.
Although we won't be able to gather in the numbers we used to for any grand farewell event, a number of users are planning their own 'final' events for restricted numbers. We will likely hold a low-key garage sale to sell/give away various items on Sat 28th Nov, so do drop in and have a cuppa with us!
We do have some ideas brewing for continuing some activities, mainly around live music, into the future, at a nearby public venue TBA. Meanwhile this page will remain active, at the very least for the archive of many great stills and videos, and record of things that went on in this wonderful, warm, reverberating space!
With love and gratitude to our extended Queen St Hall family,
Sandra and Rob
