Aims
To improve the skills and knowledge of all members by setting projects, discussing the results amongst all by open discussion and instruction from each member on how they tackled the project and got to the end result, even if they feel it failed. Each member must be prepared to help/instruct other members on how they achieved each project.
There will be a meeting once a month for most of the year. Meetings will also give a chance for participants to ask for help from others in any area they require, eg resizing, mounting, entering exhibitions etc.
ALL TRIPS OUT ARE CANCELLED UNTIL FURTHER NOTICE. The committee apologise for this action but it was felt necessary given the advice from Government.
Meetings are usually held on the last Monday of each month, 7:30 in Milking Parlour Crafts
http://www.milkingparlourcrafts.com/contact.htm (Little Howle Farm, Howle Hill HR9 5SL). The cost is £2 for members and £3 for visitors. Due to the current COVID situation we are currently doing online meetings only.
Visitors: please let us know in advance (use Contact Us page) if you would like to come along as sometimes we go out taking photos in the local area.
