Spring Diary 2026
Dear Members,What a brilliant start to the year!
More than 40% of the work accepted in the CASE exhibition in the Herbert was by members of CWSA.
The launch last Thursday went really well, with visitors saying it was the best they had been to. The exhibition looks amazing. Two galleries full of local artist's paintings, sculptures etc.
The Herbert worked really hard right up to the last minute to display it and they've done a really good job.
There's so much to see, allow yourself at least 2 hours to go round. (Closed on Mondays). Sadly, there is now a small admission fee (less than the cost of a cup of tea and a cake) which can put people off visiting.
I heard that our 2024 CASE exhibition smashed their visitor's records, which is probably why we have two galleries this year, and for 2 months instead on one month.
DIARY DATES:
AGM 10am - 12pm on Saturday 28th March, LEEK WOTTON VILLAGE HALL
If you would like to join our wonderful committee, please let me know.
I have several boxes on M&S chocolate biscuits left over from the CASE launch, so no need to make cookies this year.
We usually have a swap / or sale of unwanted artists materials to raise money for charity.

Colonel John Wyley was a founder member of the CWSA and donated the Charterhouse to the city. This is now in the hands of the National Trust. CWSA members are invited to attend a talk at the Charterhouse by Emma Major, granddaughter of John Wyley.
They would love some current CWSA members to attend. Contact: Charterhouse, Laura Fairfax<oneilllr8@hotmail.com>
Saturday 11th July. 2 pm. There will also be a book festival (the first in Coventry) going on a the same time.
You hang/display your work, and 'man' your exhibition.
The galleries are at the top of the stairs - next to the lift. Contact the Herbert for details.
(I think it is about £200 per week, minimum booking 2 weeks, and they like exhibitions to be 'themed')
Be prepared. Please take photographs that can be included on the site, including one of yourself, and your work.
Images should be sent to Cliff Vince, email 313vince@gmail.com
