AT our Art Fair held at Hanley Swan Village Hall on Saturday 22 October, a mixture of artists from the Malvern Art Group and the Malvern terrace Artists are please to report that we raised a total of £135 for the Charity Malvern Special Families, helping children with special needs. This amount will be matched by a sponsor of the charity, which has presented the Malvern Art group with a certificate of appreciation.

The artists passed an enjoyable day meeting and chatting to art lovers and artists from other clubs, even if we would have welcomed more visitors in the afternoon. The Malvern Terrace Artists hold painting sessions on Wednesdays from 2 to 4pm and welcome any would-be painters to drop in and try us, just bring your paints and materials along.
