“Rolleston Reviewed”

An exhibition of pastel drawings of the village completed in 2009 by John Underhill.

In the Old Grammar School Hall in the Churchyard, Saturday Feb 27th 11am-5pm, Sunday Feb 28th 11am-5pm, Monday Mar 1st 5pm-8pm.

Some drawings will be familiar, some less so and a few, perhaps, you won’t recognise at first but all are of some aspect he thought to be good and interesting when he noticed it. All the pictures will be for sale and the proceeds will go to support and further improve the hall. Entry free. All Welcome.
