Wonderfully Made got off to a flying start with last night's Preview Evening, and it looks like being every bit as good as last year's event, if not better.  Lovely to see so many people.

There will be photographs coming shortly (we tried to take some last night, but too many people in the way.  Nice problem to have.)

We are running from 10am till 10pm today and tomorrow, and from 10-4pm on Saturday, so plenty of time to pop along.  

Our friends the Red Parrots did us proud last night with their folk music, and they will be performing again this evening.  It's worth coming along just to hear them.  It's toe-tapping stuff, and it's free!

Tomorrow night brings a change of music:  still ethnic, but moving far south to West Africa for drum-based rhythms from Knock on Wood.

Preparations for Wonderfully Made are now well underway.  The list of exhibitors is now confirmed, and we are now putting together the schedule of entertainments and demonstrations.  There are also photo's of last years event.

We still have few places available for a wire working workshop being given by Helena Sharpley.

Contact us if you are interested in taking part.

The workshop is to be held near Thurgoland and will run from 10.00 a.m. - 4.00 p.m.  Cost is £20.

Participants don't need to have any sort of artistic training, just an interest and willingness to have a go. 

Helaina has done several workshops in Primary Schools, if this is any encouragement to those fearful that they may not be "arty" enough! 

Take a look at Helaina's website to see the sort of work you will be creating.

A number of our members hope to be taking part in the exhibition of art being held as part of the Wortley Hall Remembered celebration.
The exhibition will run from Wed 5th October to Wed 12th October 2011.
No further details at present, but check out theWortley Hall website in due course

Put it in your diary.  November 3rd - 5th.  More details coming soon on the current
web site
