Country Women’s Association of Victoria –
Mornington Peninsula Group Exhibition – Saturday 20 April, 2013CWA’s Mornington Peninsula Group President,
Beth Harris kindly asked yours truly to open their Annual Exhibition today at
the Peninsula Community Theatre in Mornington.
I was very humbled and having overcome the initial nerves I stood up,
gave a small talk describing what MPPI is about – the hall was so quiet while
they listened you could have heard a pin drop- then I was asked to present the
Prize Winners with their trophies. It
was a thrill I have never experienced before but enjoyed every moment of
it. I was so glad I was not asked to be
a judge as with all the talent present in the hall it would have been a very
difficult task. Congratulations to all
the contributors and winners.
The turnout was superb and it was lovely
for me to see many familiar faces from MPPI mingling with the CWA members who
were very welcoming and charming.Thank you to Beth and members for the
lovely Morning Tea and Lunch and for having me as your Guest Speaker. I would
like to wish CWA a very successful event which continues until Sunday afternoon
at 3.00pm.
After leaving this lovely event I dropped
in at the University of the Third Age in Mornington who were also having an Art
and Craft Show. My first stop was in the
Craft room where I found more familiar faces from MPPI exhibiting yet more
beautiful inspirational works. Well done ladies and thank you Jeannie
Bridger for inviting me. My next stop was the Art Room filled with
lovely paintings and other pieces of art and sculptures.
What a great way to spend a Saturday
afternoon. Thank you all for sharing
your art and craft with the community.
Happily, Kathie
