The Artists Meet
A quick sketch by Joy Edwards
Going for Gold
At the meeting on Friday morning the Halifax Art Society welcomed Brian Abram, the author of ‘Grandad goes for Gold’. Lynne Hickin, the illustrator, stands next to him on the photo below. The chairman of HAS, Lynda Thomas, is showing the brand new third book in the series. Hannah Cockroft, the world famous Paralympian, is featured in the book.
All proceeds of the sale will continue to go to The Spinal Injuries Association and Back Up.
HAS returns in September

The old beech
After a few of our members met up in Manor Heath Park recently, member Brigitte has finished and shared her picture.
The photograph below from the Halifax Courier shows some of the park’s trees surrounding the Victorian mansion before it was demolished in 1958. Three years later the new sunken garden in the mansion’s original footprint was opened, and the sundial where our members met up was placed at its centre.
