There is work by Members, Friends and the general public and a retrospective of work by Judith Foster and Claire Lambert, two of of our longest-standing and most respected Members. It was a pleasure to see many familiar faces at the Private View, and meet some new ones, in this well-loved venue which has played such an important role in the visual arts in the town.
