Information received from Janet Rogers – Parish Clerk

On Monday 7th November, we’re opening the Barn for the first of the Warm Welcome Mondays taking place between now and Christmas. You’re most welcome to drop in for a cuppa and lunch in a warm atmosphere.

On Tuesday 8th, Celtic prayer will gather at 10am in Surlingham Church porch.

Meet Martin Mitchell at Art Cafe in the Barn on Wednesday 9th, 10.30am -12 Noon. Martin is a mezzotint engraver, whose work reflects his love of landscapes. Based in Norwich since 1989 and founder of the Norwich Print Fair, he is an Associate of the Royal Society of Painter-Printmakers. Martin will bring examples of his work and equipment, and as usual there will be opportunities to make some art of our own!

Best wishes, Nick
