COMMUNITY PAINTING DAY

Saturday 6th March 2010

Oadby Evangelical Free Chruch, North Memorial Hall, Stoughton Road, Oadby, Leicester.

10am to about 4pm.  This gives plenty of time so you do not feel rushed, but if you need to leave earlier that’s fine.

£8.00 towards the cost of materials.

By popular request, this is the 3rd community painting day, when we paint a section from a well-known painting and then assemble it into one enormous work.  This painting day for adults (14+) has an Easter theme, using two sections of Hands Holbein the Younger’s ‘The Passion of Christ’, showing Christ being brought befgore Herod and a details of the crucifixion. There will be a grand unveiling of the huge finished pictures at the Easter Praise Service on Sunday 4th April at 10.45am.

You do not have to be an artist to take part.  For further information contact Margaret Chapman at the telephone number and email address below.
