Meetings cancelled until further notice.

In light of fresh Government advice, our usual venue building has decided to close to the public until further review.

This of course means we won’t be able to hold our beloved meetings and activities for the time being.

Please watch this space, and subscribe to this blog for the latest updates in these uncertain times.

Stay safe.

FOOD FOR THOUGHT exhibition (16th – 30th AUG)

Swadlinote Asperger’s Society is hosting an art exhibition titled “Food for Thought.” The work has been created with local artist Rebeca Jarman over the last five months in response to topics surrounding food. The exhibition showcases pieces created individually and collaboratively using different art forms and methods.

The exhibition is between Friday 16th August until Friday 30th August at Sharpe’s Pottery Museum, Swadlincote (during the museum’s normal opening times).

We have a preview event Friday 16th August 3pm at Sharpe’s Pottery Museum where you can meet the members who made this possible, and find out about our next project coining in Septemeber.

Hope to see you there!
