BINHAM GUILD OF ARTISTS

The group consists of anyone interested in art or craft, beginner or otherwise. Artists with professional experience form part of the group and will gladly advise if needed.

We meet every Tuesday morning from 10 to 12 in the Village Hall. A fee of £2 per morning includes coffee and biscuits. A demonstration of painting or craftwork normally takes place on the first Tuesday of every month.

In May, Sally Ann Fitter brought a large number of her paintings to show to the group and gave a very interesting talk about her work. In June, Janet Beckett talked about the use of light and shade and contrast, and demonstrated her theme by painting an excellent watercolour. Finally, in July, John Hurst gave a very instructive, interesting and amusing account of his career as an artist and followed up by showing his personal technique with watercolour.

BOULES-ON-THE-BEACH

The Sanderlings play Boules regularly during the summer. It is our 15th birthday this year and we will be celebrating on the beach on Wednesday 4th August at 5 p.m. If you would like a game, do come and join us.
It is very informal and don't worry if you've never played before. It really is fun. Just bring a little something to eat and drink.

We hope to see you there – at Hut 169 (it's very Pink). 01328 830270

SLOE GIN (ETC) COMPETITION

The results of the Third Binham Sloe Gin & Others Competition will be announced at the Binham Harvest Supper on 24th September. There will be classes for Sloe Gin and for any other type of liqueur that you might have made. Entries should be taken to Priory Cottage on 22nd September and judging will take place that evening.

Make sure your bottle is labelled with name, year and that it has your name on it. Of course this will then be covered so the judges won't know whose it is. For more information call 01328 830270
