David Brown's 20 years of service honoured

At the recent 150th Annual General Meeting, David Brown was presented with a plaque to honour his 20 years of service to the club.

David has served for may years as secretary and in various other roles such as president, committee member, class leader, constitution author, company director, historian and archivist.

He is still the club historian and archivist, and an active member.

The Plaque was made by Kathy Dereli who was chosen especially as she is one of David's favourite artists.

Kathy, a great sculptor and long-time member of the club, was also a student of Terry McDonald (who we published an obituary for recently), who was a master sculptor who made a plaque for the Club secretary J.M.Moorehouse that was featured in last years Williamson exhibition.

Commissioning this plaque continues a new club tradition for honouring members who have made exceptional contributions over very long periods of time above and beyond the long serving members board that honours members of 20 years or more.

The next Members' Meeting of the Liver Sketching Club Limited is scheduled for:

Saturday 1st April 2023 at 1.00pm at new studio located at Studio Room 21, 2nd floor in Oriel Chambers.

As per our constitution, the club is managed by a committee of up to 10 club members who serve for a period of two years from the Members’ Meeting at which they were elected after which time they must stand for re-election and, if successful, serve for a further two years.

All club members are entitled to stand for election to serve on the committee and we are actively seeking new members to serve from this year until March 2025.

We hope to see many of you there.

moving on up!

Still in the same building, the Liver Sketching Club has moved into a new studio - Room 21, located on 2nd floor of Oriel Chambers.

Our new studio is now functional and members are working hard to make the studio feel like home.

In April, we will receive our loaned collection of works back from the Williamson Art Galley, which will once again be hung in the studio.

The club's library is now housed in Room 22A and is in the process of being reviewed and reshelved by member volunteers.

We now share the use of a kitchen and need to be good neighbours, so please keep the area clean and tidy.

If you find that your key fob doesn't let you into the new studio, please let us know at liversketchingclub@yahoo.co.uk, as it may have expired.

We hope that you'll have many happy sketching hours in Room 21.
