Welcome to our newsletter for July.

Exciting developments are taking place at Farncombe this summer.  Not only is our 2009 course programme almost complete, but Smallbrook will be undergoing a £500,000 refurbishment of the dining room, bar and reception, together with improved access.  The Centre will be functioning as normal while this work goes on, which will be complete by early September.

Come and see the new facilities and more of the Estate at our Free Open Day on Sunday 21 September.   The day will include a number of  workshops and exhibitions.  You can now book a taster workshop online or by calling 01386 854100.  The full Open Day programme will be available from 1 August.

Artists may also be interested in Warwickshire Arts Week taking place 5-20 July and a range of summer schools taking place at Stanton Guildhouse.

We look forward to welcoming you to Farncombe this summer !
