President
Sadly, Peter Moss our President for many years will be stepping down at this AGM, We will miss his company his advice and his humour at our meetings, however he will not be leaving the society and so we still expect to see a lot of him, at exhibitions, talks and outings, it wouldn’t be the same without him!
We are also delighted to announce that Ian Walter has agreed to stand as our next President.
Ian, for the last 12 years has supported the society in many ways, not an artist himself, he knows art and loves art, we look forward to his time with us.

Committee
Just one new member of committee needed this year, that of Deputy Chair.
