HAGS,

Be sure to pop in to the annual Hawke’s Bay Art Exhibition being held this week, and next – April 29th to May 11th 2024 at “Art Inc” Russell Street, Hastings (most suitably situated almost next door to Westerman’s cafe).    You will be interested to find several HAG entries displayed.

This is an advanced notice of our next HAG Saturday meeting at 10am – (to whenever time it suits you), Saturday May 18th .    Mark this date on your calendar as  “not to be missed” as the theme for the day will be an “EYE”.    Your choice of an eye – be it human, animal or whatever.  It can leer, ogle, wink, stare, cry, have make up – or not, and can be any colour you fancy.    Perhaps NOT an eye of a needle though! 

 Any medium, any size.   Get “your thinking caps” on, observe and prepare, and who knows what masterpiece could result in your efforts?

Enjoy the company of like-minded people in modern, warm and light surroundings with refreshments provided at Jireh Hall, Frederick Street – with our renowned resident Tutor Ian Thompson in attendance to help you along if required.

​​​​​​​HAG’s April Club-day featured a good turn out, and several new members were welcomed.

Our theme for the day was ANZAC/Autumn and most members painted/drew accordingly – with most featured here (yet uncompleted) but to be finished, and to be taken along next meeting May 18th for general viewing.

Recently our group welcomed Elaine, (winner of today’s Q.A. Chocolate fish), Sharon, Myra, Linda and Ann – all new HAGS! Their paintings are included here along with others painted on the day. Not all paintings have been included as our website only allows us to display only 20 at a time.

We are most grateful to Ian (our resident Tutor). for the generous assistance he gives willingly to all members, and to Diane and Dawn – the very best of volunteers!

Well done everyone.
