Maldon Art Club
Newsletter September 2025
I hope this newsletter finds you all well and that you have had a nice summer.
The Plein Air Programme was a success and those that attended had a lovely time and some excellent artwork to show for it, along with nice days out with each other, and a few laughs along the way.
We start our new year with the AGM on September 2nd, 2025, held in the dining room at The Plume. Please do come along. The formal part of the evening – voting in the new committee and reports from various people won’t take too long. Afterwards we will be having refreshments and a nice informal chat to find out what you as members would like to have at the Art Club. The events team are always looking for new ideas to bring to the club. We would obviously like to do things that you as members want but we can’t know that unless you tell us.
Don’t forget your cups!!!
