the reading room :: e-newsletter #47

Hello!

Sorry this is late - in the chaotic midst of the Festival of Unpopular Culture! So far, it's been amazing. Matthew K's show went so well - with each painting being snapped up on opening night. Saturday we had a great crafternoon, followed by the great doco Making it Handmade. There was standing room only at Choral Grief on Sunday, and we still have more events to go!
