Autumn/Winter Term Dates

Dear all,

Due to my commitments in Shropshire, Autumn classes will now run on Fridays

Whilst the class is currently full, there are sometimes last minute spaces to fill in for holidays, illness etc.

Please contact the gallery via email (davidkstead@yahoo.co.uk) if you’d like to join us.

I’m very much looking forward to seeing you all.

Best, D.
