OUR NOVEMBER SOCIAL RUN IS A VISIT TO THE CRISP GALLERIES

Sunday, 11 November

The Crisp Galleries just outside Yass is a family owned business in three parts.  The first is the The Glass Studio.  Peter Crisp is internationally regarded as on of the world's finest glass-artisans. His work has been shown in galleries and museums in the USA, Great Britain, and Germany. He uses a kiln to slump glass into different shapes and forms. He takes ordinary glass to the extreme limits of its character, and is endlessly experimenting with new techniques. You will see an interesting array of his gold & glass tableware on display.  The second part is The Lavender Gallery and Gallery Antiques that have lavender products, giftware and a selection of gourmet foodstuffs for sale. A range of antique furniture is also for sale. And finally there is the beautiful surrounds of the unique gardens complete with formal lavender beds, willow-tree avenue, waterfall, water tower, mosaic walls and a picnic/BBQ area.

 

We will depart Gold Creek (the car park outside Café Injoy) at 1.00pm for the one-hour drive to the Galleries.  This means that you have the option of a delightful light lunch at Café Injoy before we leave or stll have an early Sunday roast at home. On arrival at the Galleries, Peter Crisp will give us an introductory talk and we will then be free to inspect before a yummy afternoon tea is served.

 

The cost of entry, our guided tour, and afternoon tea is $13 per head.  Please book on the function sheet at a monthly meeting or contact the Social Secretary direct.
