New members appeal

Monk Fryston Art Club

Invites new members

We meet every Monday afternoon between 1:00pm and 4:00pm at Monk Fryston Parish Church Hall. 

You are invited to come along on any Monday to see what we do; perhaps to stay for the afternoon, with no obligation to join.

We have members at every level of skill, from beginners to accomplished artists. We are a friendly group, working in an informal setting, without a tutor, helping each other along with advice and encouragement. 

We use all kinds of media; watercolour, acrylic, oil, pastel, pencil, charcoal, gouache, pen and ink; whatever you like, or want to try.  Some members even use their Monday afternoon to complete craft projects.

Half a dozen times each year we host a different visiting demonstrator, who will usually run a workshop or a paint-along, so that we are all involved, and we can all learn something new. 

If you need more information, contact our President, Jean Dearn on 01977 682611 or email: jean.dearn@gmail.com

Exhibition appeal for Facebook

Some of you may have seen that we have a Facebook campaign going on for this years exhibition. 

If you haven't , check it out. 

If you have seen it then please share it. 

Also please send be some photos of any completed paintings for the page. 

Email them to me at karlsimpson1285@btinternet.com 

At the moment all I am able to post are photos of my work and a few others. 

I can't get to the club tomorrow due to work again so it's vital I get some more photos. 

Banners have arrived plus Facebook news.

The banners have arrived , yes I know there's no date on them but I was asked to leave that blank so we can use them year on year.

Also I have started the Facebook publicity advert so that will run until the day of the show.

For those on Facebook , search for Monk Fryston Art Club and "like" the page , share it , etc , get the word out.

Wahey , a post at last !

Ok so here we go, the build up to the exhibition.

September 18th at Monk Fryston Hall.

So here are a few paintings from today's meet , some of which may be at the exhbition.

If you are a member and have some completed works I need to get them on here and in Facebook.

Facebook more importantly, so bring them along and get Karl Simpson or Malcolm Anderson to photograph them.

Also do please actually go to the blog rather than just read this email as there are a few links to other blogs.

Picnic Pics

Just a few photos from the successful picnic on Monday 8th August

Apologies of anyone didn't want to have these published.

email me privately and I can remove them.

We normally have paintings up here don't we.

Rooms for all exhibition cancelled

I have to announce that the "Rooms For All" exhibition idea has been shelved for this year.

Perhaps with more planning we can get it up and running in the spring 2017.

The Picnic for now is still going ahead but it is finely balanced as to whether that may also be cancelled too.

There is a poster up in the club entrance that needs some additional attendees adding , if not as stated that may also be shelved.

Please make all the effort you can.


I believe the new programme is almost ready and I will post that up here, when I get a copy.

!f anyone can take any photos of club meetings please send them to
 karlsimpson1285@btinternet.com

regards.
