We have changed the event to this new location, which will be our permanent location for when, we're having event’s indoors, which could be every 2 weeks. When we’re outdoors we don’t need the room at those times and don’t need to pay rent then.

This is a large room with heating, bathroom and cooking facilities. This room at a reduced half rate cost's €60 for 5 hours, which the organiser can't afford, but with the current expected turnout of 8 members a week at events, and growing weekly, then the cost shared equally by those who use the room, and not by those who don’t use the room, become's manageable at €5 each, solely to cover the cost of the rent, and not for profit to anyone.

This is as fair to everyone as I can make it. We only rent the room every 2 weeks so it averages out at only €2.50 a week, in winter time, and over the year possibly averages only €1 a week as we won’t need the room in summertime when the weather is warmer.

The winter is approaching and the cold and rain and we need to get indoors sometimes if we want to consistently do art over the wintertime, and we can’t expect to get something for nothing.

The alternative would be to meet in cafés and pubs to do portraiture and that would be more costly for drinks for 5 hours. If we bring along our own food and boil water for tea and coffee in our rented room, then this will save us a lot of money on refreshment’s in café and pub’s. I never wanted to charge money to anyone in our group but we need a room and it has to be paid for unfortunately.

I am thrilled to have got this place for the group as it will be our strong and steady base if not home for the future. It's a great opportunity to help the group grow and be strong. You will have fun times and not regret it.

We will be doing portrait and figure drawing here today.
Bring along your own choice of art materials and pads. I'll be bringing an A3 or A4 drawing pad, 2B pencil, artist rubber, and sharpener. We will be drawing each other here for 1 minute and 10 minute poses.
Members can come and go as they choose during the 5 hour session. Maybe half of session will be for breaks and chat.
