A very special event will take place on Wednesday 18th March when renowned botanical artist Emma Tennant will talk about her meticulous and much lauded paintings.
She will bring a pop-up exhibition of her wonderful paintings, and Ben Wood, Isle of Wight resident, photographer and film maker, will be screening his recently made documentary film, Emma Tennant, Artist & Gardener.
Emma has generously waived her expenses to support the Friends, and will make a donation in respect of any paintings sold on the night.
The evening begins at 6pm and will finish at 8:30pm. Tickets are £20, to include a glass of wine and Canapés, and can be reserved by contacting Sally Peake, tel: 731403 or email: sallye.peake@btinternet.com
Members can book now before the event is opened to non-members.
