About the event
We've three plein air gatherings scheduled to take place over the summer, from June to July.
Bring your sketch kit and check in with Diane and Dayle at the main entrance on Glebe Road. Here, you can receive your LSA lanyard/badge, a map of the gardens, and find out what's happening that day.
As there are no refreshment facilities available in the gardens, it is essential to bring your own packed lunch, which you can choose to enjoy in our Artist's Retreat in Beaumont House. Refreshments will be available throughout the day here. Stay a while in the gardens, or the whole day which culminates in a 'show and tell' gathering at Beaumont House with cake and a cuppa just after 3 pm.
This is a free event; we simply ask members to make a donation towards refreshments if they wish to.
