Me again, folks. Hope you're all having a relaxing/invigorating, warm/chilled, holiday abroad/home (delete where applicable!). We had our celebration of 5 years at the end of July. Sadly I couldn't be there because of a mix up and my own holiday with friends in Sunderland. A good time was had by the lovely people who were able to get.
I thought it would be great to get together with you all next Wednesday, 20th, and the following Wednesday, 27th - like to keep things Wednesdays so there's less chance of us forgetting, like-wise with the time - 1.30 - 3.30. I wondered if people would like to meet firstly (20/8/14) at Relish, the lovely cafe on Beeston High Road, near the Wine Bar and ArtWorks Shop, and then secondly (27/8/14) at Cafe Nerro on Beeston High Road. There's an outside seating area so if the weather's good, we could catch some rays while we drink and chat :)
If you'd like to do something else as a social occasion with the group, then do please contact me via email and we'll see whether it's an idea that will work well with our members, newbies included.
See you soon!

Summer hols and new academic timetable
Hi folks
I do hope you're able to get out a bit and enjoy the lovely weather, and for those of you who suffer more in this weather, I hope that you have safe harbour and shelter, but are still able to rest and relax.
We're probably meeting up informally during this month, and Emma Owen has kindly offered us some dates for a glass workshop at her place. It will be £30-£40 depending on what you make, but she's an excellent tutor and has some wonderful ideas for us to develop.
I've included the new term dates, although I'm waiting for the tutors to come back to me regarding their dates. There is also the possibility this year of having a few jewellery workshops: Caroline Balfour is hoping to run her own crafting workshop from home with semi precious stones and coloured wire - beautiful; Bec from BeCass on Wollaton Road in Beeston is looking forward to running a class at the art group; and Dawn Feaney is hoping to bring her silversmithing skills to our art group too. So lots to look forward to this coming year.
If you feel like dropping me a line to ask for something to be included in the blog, or for clarification about anything you've seen, please contact me (Alli) via the email address, or Caroline via the phone number.
Take good care of yourself this summer, and we all look forward to seeing you in the new year!
Every blessing
