A small display of work by the Great Gidding Drawing Group will also be on show.
The drawing group meets once a month in the Village Hall typically on the second Thursday of every month to draw still life or figure subjects. Everyone is welcome (not just Giddingites!!) from beginners to experts. Each session includes a few shorter drawing exercises followed by a longer final drawing and of course a chance to natter and compare notes during our coffee and biscuit break half way through! Contact Krystyna for more information.
