Issue 11 - Sept 14th 2010 - Two autumn exhibitions

Sent on behalf of Christine Richards:

Foal Farm, the animal sanctuary near Downe, is organising a fund-raising event on 9th October and has invited members of Bromley Art Society to contribute paintings for an auction. They would particularly like work inspired by Foal Farm and its animals but would welcome any paintings, especially of wild life and the countryside. Members are invited either to donate the whole amount raised or 20% of the purchase price. Paintings should be available by 29th September and arrangements can be made to take them to Foal Farm. Anyone interested should contact either Ann Holdway or Christine Richards.

Some of our members are organising a fund-raising exhibition in aid of the NSPCC at Harcourt House, Grasmere Road, Bromley BR1 4BB on 2nd and 3rd October from 10am to 5pm each day.
