Group to return to Knowlton Court
The Group has decided that the 2009 painting holiday will again be held at Knowlton
Court, near Canterbury. The group went to Knowlton Court in 2008 and enjoyed the
visit so much that it was agreed that the same place would be chosen for the next
holiday, which will be from Friday 12 to Friday 19 June. The accommodation consists
of 11 double rooms, most of which have en suite or exclusive use bathrooms. In addition
two flats will be available which sleep 2 and 4 people respectively. These can be
booked either for weekends or for mid-
The Dower House at Knowlton Court. Most of the rooms booked are in this building.
Local theme for 2009 postcards
Group members are being asked to paint views of Gravesend and the surrounding area for the next series of postcards. The paintings will be elected for use as postcards by Town Centric, the Gravesend tourist office and will be sold there, at the group’s annual exhibition and at the Gravesend public library. Finished paintings should be ready by April 3.
Membership fees
Despite the credit crunch, membership fees for 2009 will remain the same as last
year -
