Members' Art and Craft Exhibition 2007

Thanks to everyone who supported our first exhibition of members' work, which was held over two days during May 2007. Judging by the comments in the visitors book it was a big success and we look forward to the next one. Our charity collection raised over £90 and this has been split equally between the Heeley City Farm and the Cavendish Centre for Cancer Care.

Some comments taken from the visitors' book:

"I thought it was a stimulating exhibition that provided a real breath of fresh air"
"Absolutely fantastic!"
"Some wonderful work, inspiring"
"Inspirational"
"Great exhibition. Some very talented artists! I greatly enjoyed it"
"Really lovely"
"Impressive"
"A really good variety, well presented"
"Wonderful idea and I'm really impressed. I shall never look on a Physicist in the same way again!"

Here are some photographs taken during the exhibition:
