This week saw our second meeting at The Barn, and our second with snow and ice to contend with. However, more people managed to make it this week and we are beginning to settle in. There are still some issues to be discussed, particularly storage, so we are planning a meeting after lunch next Tuesday (29/1/13). Try and come if you can. Anyone who can think of a solution to the easels problem will definitely be the next 'Artist of the Month'.
aim4art is a voluntary community arts group, formed in 2009, dedicated to pushing the boundaries of painting and drawing in the Tees Valley. We aim to paint, aim to draw, aim to create art. We meet every Tuesday (10am-4pm) at The Barn, overlooking Hemlington Lake, Middlesbrough, TS8 9DA. We have no regular tutor, but support each other and organise a programme of visits and workshops.

First Meeting at The Barn
Owing to the wintry conditions, attendance for the first meeting at our new venue was a bit down, though not quite as sparse as this photo would suggest:
The view outside was certainly picturesque. Thanks to Julia for sending the photos below - I especially like no3. Thanks also to Julia, Paul and their helpers for going to rescue 2 cupboards (now placed in the kitchen at The Barn) and the lampshades. Anyone for an installation?

New Year New Venue
At a meeting on Tuesday, with the vast majority of members present, we voted unanimously to leave Nature's World and move to Hemlington Recreation Centre. Our first meeting at our new venue will be next week, Tuesday 15th January.
I'm sure we all hope the current problems at Nature's World are resolved and wish the staff there the best of luck for the future.

Happy New Year!
Happy New Year to all our members! Seems I jumped the gun a bit with the last post. It looks like we'll be meeting as usual at Nature's World on Tuesday, January 7th. Look forward to seeing you all.
