people are interested. <br>
</p>
<p>This workshop will be conducted by Lee Moore who has excellent

venues for exhibitions going forward. If you know of any venues,
within Bromley and neighbouring boroughs suitable for exhibiting
please let us know by contacting <b><a class="moz-txt-link-abbreviated" href="mailto:bromleyartsocietyevents@gmail.com">bromleyartsocietyevents@gmail.com</a>.</b>
