Good afternoon everyone. How are you doing in this heat? Your committee have been really busy meeting via Zoom and socially distancing outside (good excuse for picnics)😂🤣to plan for the return of South Gloucestershire Arts Appreciation Society meetings and talks. Hopefully resuming in October at the same venue and time, but with all the necessary measures in place to keep everyone safe. It looks like a very enjoyable programme ahead. Watch this space for more information ........ oh and this website looked interesting! Take care everyone xx

Wow. This is something different. I hope you are all enjoying the Art Trail from your armchair!

Has anybody been doing any arty craft things in the lockdown. It would be lovely to see anything you have created, started, are thinking about Irvin the middle of. It could be anything from a sketch, a painting, embroidery, knitting. Absolutely anything. I’ll start another post where we can all share our creativity!!😂🤣. It will be fun!

Hello fellow Arts people. Hope you are keeping well and safe. Well we are lucky to have some lovely sunshine and I hope you are managing to get outside and enjoy it - perhaps creating your own bit of garden artistry. Anyway I thought I would share this link with you. Well worth visiting the Severn Vale Art Trail FB page seeing as we can’t get to them.

Ooh does anyone remember the fabulous talk we had a few seasons ago on Dumfries House?

Dumfries House, in Ayrshire, was designed by renowned 18th-century architect brothers John, Robert and James Adam and built between 1754 and 1759.

Recognised as one of the Adam brothers' masterpieces it remained unseen by the public since it was built 250 years ago until it opened its doors as a visitor attraction in June 2008. The former home of the Marquesses of Bute, it was saved for the nation at the eleventh hour by a consortium of organisations and individuals brought together by HRH The Prince Charles, Duke of Rothesay.
