It's time again for our informal annual art club competition!
Small canvas boards are being handed out at the art club. All you have to do is paint a picture of your choice of subject using any medium. Please do not sign your painting as voting is anonymous. Place your finished painting in the white envelope provided and bring along to the club on Thursday 13th March. Voting will start at 2pm. A prize of £20 Cass Art voucher will be presented to the painting with the most votes. Good Luck!

Please note, as decided at the AGM, there will be no auction this year but we are hoping to organise a couple of fun activities instead, to add to the informality of the event.
