U3A Painting & Drawing

The Painting & Drawing Group welcomes everyone, regardless of ability, even beginners.
We are a very sociable group who enjoy working together and chatting about what we are doing. Some of us are beginners, some have been painting for many years, some belong to regular art classes, some just value this monthly opportunity to begin or develop a picture.

Activities

We choose a different theme each month, ranging from seasonal to still life, landscape to floral, with the occasional “free” session such as Think Large, Let yourself go, Extending the Theme, but anyone can work on their own if they wish.
We bring our own materials; water and tables are available and there is a tea break, when we admire each other’s work and chat about painting and drawing.
Venue: United Reform Church Hall

U3A German Conversation

As a conversation group, we ask that members are not beginners and have had some experience of making themselves understood in German. We will be a mixed ability group – so yes, plenty of mistakes but the object is to attune our ear and thinking to German rather than English. We will be encouraged to speak entirely in German (except during our tea break) by our good fortune in having one or two fluent speakers come along for moral support. Some material will be circulated by email before the meeting if members wish to prepare something on a chosen topic with a nudge towards useful vocabulary, but otherwise are encouraged to bring along material of their own choosing.

Activities

Currently meetings are held in the Lounge at the rear of St Thomas’ Hall, Holtspur, starting at 1.45pm for about an hour and a half, on the first Tuesday of the month.
