We are a friendly group of mainly, but not solely, women who are interested in developing our skills in making textiles through the use of natural fibres and the traditional skills of spinning, weaving, dyeing and felting. We can lend equipment and you will find that there is always someone willing to show you how it works and to help sort out problems. Visitors and long term members are always welcome.

We meet every Wednesday (Except August) Weavers 09.00am — 04.00 pm in room 2.      Spinners 09.00 — 12.00 noon in the Hilary Christy Room

Parent/Toddler sessions are held on Monday afternoons from 1.00 – 2.30 pm in the Ann Rose Hall. We are registered with, and inspected by, Ofsted. Latest inspection was in February 2009 and received the grade – GOOD.

Have you ever wished you could sing, or have you been too busy to sing for years and now find yourself with a little more time? If so, this could be the choir for you.

I believe almost everyone can sing and so welcome you to come and ‘sing for joy’ with the Ringwood Community Choir.

We sing songs from around the world and in different styles: African, Eastern European, gospel, folk, do-wop, spirituals, rounds and more. There is no need to read music, although music is available.

If you would like to come and join our friendly group for a fun musical relaxing and uplifting evening, contact Kirsteen on the number above.

Tutor: Lorna Byron (01425 477 414 or lorna@lornabyron.com)

Class: Tuesday 9:30am to 12:30pm

Room: Anne Rose Hall

This class includes occasional Saturday workshops.

Students enjoy one-to-one tuition from Lorna, working at their own pace to acquire the knowledge necessary to create paintings to be proud of. Careful attention is given to drawing skills together with painting techniques.

Class: Wednesday 10:00am to 12:00noon and Thursday 2:00pm to 4:00pm

Room: Ann Rose Hall (Wed), Hilary Christy Room (Thu)

The classes are designed to explore the recording of plants and flowers as an art form. The style is botanical and we work in graphite pencil, pen and ink, watercolour and coloured pencil according to the student’s choice.

Tuition is suitable for all levels of ability giving attention to building confidence in beginners with a gradual acquisition of skills in observation,drawing, composition and painting.

Our group is friendly and hard-working. We all enjoy the two hours of freedom to concentrate on our artwork. Enquiries are welcome although places are limited.
