PERTHSHIRE ART ASSOCIATION PROSPECTUS 2008-9 (A charity registered in Scotland. Number: SC000045) The syllabus certainly gives a wide range of topics for our monthly Thursday talks. The tutors at the Workshops and Classes are to some members well known, with a few new faces - just to stretch our artistic skills into new ways of painting. Our task is to make the season an enjoyable one. We welcome members of all age groups at any level of experience. The choice is your - we are always interested to learn what pleases you and of any other activities you would like to see in our future programme. In November, through the courtesy of Perth and Kinross Council, our Annual Exhibition is being held at the Perth Museum and Art Gallery which opens on 22 November and closes 13 December 2008. Linda Farquharson is our guest Artist and a wide range of original artworks by professional and amateur members of the Association will be on display. The artworks will be on our web site at the time of the exhibition. Go to www.perthshireartassociation.org and click on ‘Gallery’. If you are thinking of joining us for the first time – a warm welcome; if you are returning to us – welcome back. Gillian Booth PAA President
