2020 Programme
Proposed New Schedule
Demonstrations/Workshops are cancelled due to Lockdown
Our large gatherings for demonstrations are no longer possible.
During the new Lockdown, we have had to suspend our Workshops as well,
But our rules for general proceedings are as follows for when Lockdown is eased, & subject to updated government guidelines
We will let you know when we have permission to go ahead with future activities Future demonstrations due to take place this year have been cancelled
Our plans to continue to meet at the Sports Pavilion on the first and third Wednesdays have been interrupted by the new Lockdown
Thank you to those who managed to make it to our meetings this autumn which have been workshops. Unfortunately workshops are currently on hold due to Lockdown Workshops would have been a time to paint if you wish, or to just get together and have time with other members. As soon as we have permission, we will let you know when we can resume this social gathering that some of our members really appreciateAs per the current government guidelines, workshops were limited to the maximum number of people which averaged out to about 14 members per session (please note that government guidelines may fluctuate, so Corinne will let you know when you email her if there is space for a future event)Workshops started on Wednesday 2nd September and ran from 1.45-4.45pm but this may change for future meetings once we have permission to continue in 2021:In future, please note: The Pavilion will attend to cleaning and hygiene
Membership Renewal
In future, please note: We may not use the Pavilion kitchen so members need to bring their own refreshments and water for working
In future: Facilities available at the Pavilion include toilets and lift In future: Please wear a mask when entering and leaving the building and when moving around tables. You do not have to wear a mask while seated at your table (alone or with someone from your home bubble)
For any future workshops: To book your place please contact Corinne at [email protected] or 01303 812603
For any future workshops: Only the first requisite number of people to contact Corinne will be able to attend, if more want to come they will go to the top of the waiting list for the next workshop
Many of you have enquired about paying your membership subscription: As we had to cancel all demonstrations (since April 2020), and cannot plan any further demonstrations at the moment, we are giving you a payment holiday until 31st July 2021
We will review what we are allowed to do in 2021 when we have information later on and we will give you the opportunity to renew your membership then. At the moment, we are hoping to send out your renewal forms in May 2021All 2019 members will remain on the membership list and will continue to receive updatesWe were considering a change to the society’s financial year, but will only be able to make decisions after an audit can be arranged. (At the moment we we are aiming for 31st July 2021)
The AGM will now be in 2021 when the accounts will have been audited. We will let you know when a date is set
Annual Exhibition
This had to be cancelled for 2020 because of Covid restrictions. We are not sure at this stage whether we will be able to have a physical exhibition in 2021. We will keep you informed as soon as we know.
For the 2021 exhibition, should it happen, we are having new screens made. These will fold up smaller and be more manageable than the old screens.
A new place to store these screens has been arranged.
Online Exhibition 2020
Jane Wren has arranged an online exhibition on Face book.
This is a constant and permanent online exhibition, allowing your work to be seen by many people.
Please note that you must be a Hythe Art Society member to exhibit in this online exhibition, which is why our membership secretary has to approve any request we receive before posting is allowed.
Please find all the details on this website on the page entitled: "HAS Online Exhibition 2020". Any queries please email Jane at [email protected] or phone her on 07856 703495.
