The Tithe Barn at Nether Poppleton provided a stunning backdrop to our Architextures exhibition which took place 27th to 29th June. The sun shone, the exhibition looked fabulous and we welcomed lots of visitors who were both impressed and inspired. Many people stayed to browse the sales table, try their hand at our 'guess the fairy tale' competition and enjoy the 'calorie free' baked goods with a cup of tea!
The photographs above give an overview of the Exhibition but special mention goes to members who made items to fit the theme and a selection of these appear below.
Over the three days we welcomed lots of lovely visitors and appreciated their positive comments. Here is a small selection from our visitor book.
"Beautifully crafted work, congratulations on a wonderful exhibition.""So inspiring thank you.""Thank you very much for a wonderful display of embroidery. It is fantastic to see a wide variety of techniques.""Lovely exhibition, stunning work. Very inventive and skillful. Enjoyed the cakes as well!""As usual, an excellent and inspiring display. Looking forward to the next one!""An absolutely awesome inspirational exhibition. Well done! Great! Warm welcome - beautiful homemade treats and very friendly."
We would like to thank everyone who came. We decided not to charge an entrance fee but to rely on donations. Our chosen Charities (St Leonard's Hospice and Fine Cell Work) are the beneficiaries of visitors' and YES members' generosity.
Our next meeting
Members and visitors are welcome to come along to Haxby Memorial Hall at 10.30 on Saturday 5th July.
