Studio visit, illustrated talk and Punjabi afternoon tea

Tickets £10
Waveney and Blyth Arts is pleased to offer an opportunity for up to a dozen people to visit the workshop of one of the country’s foremost glass artists.
Surinder Warboys has been producing architectural stained glass and experimental painting on glass at her studio in Mellis near Diss since 1991. You may have seen two of her works at WBA’s recent Sandlings sculpture show at Potton Hall.
Her stained glass windows are at a number of churches in our area, including Fressingfield, Great Ashfield, Palgrave and Mellis itself. Her work has featured in many exhibitions, galleries and publications. She also teaches this very traditional yet skilfully updated art. You can see more about her at www.myglassroom.com
Ending on a high note!
The Sandlings Summer Sculpture Show enjoyed a rather special ending to our 2024 residency at Potton Hall. Most of the exhibiting artists were able to come to the ‘uninstall celebrations’, but we were also joined by a large number of friends and members of the public who were attracted by an additional element to the day’s activities – namely, a performance by Halesworth’s Harmony Choir under the baton of Janet Koralambe.

Creative Beachcombing report – an enjoyable few hours at Covehithe and Benacre.
A small but enthusiastic group met together at St Andrew’s Church, Covehithe at 11.30am. Simon shared some of his finds and creative art-e-facts with the group.
We then walked north along the clifftop until we reached the beach at Benacre where it was decided to stop and eat our picnics before getting down to business. Read more.
