That’s it for our groups for this academic year, with end of term celebrations. Congratulations to the Cobweb Chamber Orchestra on a great performance yesterday evening.
We’re delighted to be opening enrolment for all of our Autumn events, which looks to be a really exciting term. The library team, Mark and our guests take a great care over providing the music for our events and so we’d really be grateful for early enrolments wherever you can. We hope that by giving you the dates so far in advance, we’ll be able to welcome more enrolments earlier.Before that, don’t forget we have 2 fantastic events in the Summer. BBC Weather is forecasting a pleasant afternoon for our picnic, so do join us! All the information you need is below.
