Great news from Farfield Mill because at a recent EGM, we won the vote by 500 to 1 to become a CBS. This means we’ll become a co-operative and people will be able to buy shares. This is the only way the mill will survive as it needs serious money investing in it to bring it up to date, repair the roof etc.
It’s been an emotional time, not without problems but we (the trustees) the resident artists, staff etc are ecstatic and now must get on with selling shares!
Meantime I’ve been working in my studio and getting ready for an exhibition at the Parsonage in Didsbury. A friend came to stay recently and we both enjoyed a week of drawing. Me in pastel and her in pencil.
Here’s one I was working on.
