Pre-Exhibition Members’ Meeting
28th July 2022 @ 7:30 pm - 9:30 pm
Our Members’ Pre Exhibition meeting on Thursday 28th July, held as usual at Tangmere Village Centre at 7.30pm. We’re hoping to see lots of you there not just for the enjoyment of being back together again, but for some important Club business.
The meeting will be the first opportunity to see the exhibition catalogue (price £1) – and to see which of your entries have been accepted (no one has less than three print acceptances) and indeed to sneak a peek to see if you have been achieved any of the awards, which will be presented at the Preview on Friday 5th August at the Assembly Room. The catalogue is quite a work of art and our thanks are due to Andy Dulson for the fabulous job he has made of it.
There will also be a short version of the PDI Show, with thanks to Jeff Owen for that. Every PDI submitted has been accepted and during the exhibition you’ll be able to see all of those on the TV by the refreshments so you can sit an enjoy the showing with a coffee and some cake.
All the Certificates of Merit, chosen by our judge this year, Chris Palmer FRPS, will be distributed at the Members’ Pre-Exhibition Meeting too and it will be good to have an enthusiastic audience to celebrate each other’s successes.
We know for those who haven’t exhibited before – and indeed those who perhaps only did it once before our enforced cancellations – that arriving at the Assembly Room on Friday 5th August to set up your prints can be quite daunting. To help with that you’ll find some guidance notes explaining how to go about it and we can give some key pointers at the Pre-Exhibition Meeting too.
Importantly though we also need you there to take away the leaflets and posters that advertise the exhibition. You should distribute these as widely as you can – to neighbours, friends, local shops, your hairdressers and the like so we can attract as many people as we can to come along and see our wonderful showing.
We’ll also have next season’s programme available for a first look what there is in store for our Thursday meetings, as well as the key dates for competitions and the other exhibitions.
And finally, with the strange circumstances of the past two years, we have some Trophy and Cup Certificates from the exhibitions in 2020 and 2021 which we will also be very pleased to present.
