Summer Exhibition Reminder

The summer exhibition is now well under way and the variety and quality of the work on show has reached a new high point. Nearly 120 pictures managed to make it through the selection process and are now proudly on display in St Swithun's Church.  Thanks to everyone who helped to put the exhibition on and who assisted on a very successful opening evening. Pictures from the exhibition will be used on next year's RAS 2011 calendar so watch this space.

Library Exhibition News

The first series of pictures for the new permanent exhibition at Retford's Denman library have now been hung by Margaret Presley and David Brown. The display looks excellent and represents a super cross section of the society's work. Next time you are in town pop in and take a look. Well done Margaret...great effort!!


June Meeting - An Evening With Mark Pidduck

Our June meeting sees Mark Pidduck demonstrate his watercolour landscape techniques at The Retford Post 16 Centre. Mark works out of his studio in Warsop and is a very popular and talented local artist.
