BUDDING artists looking to share their talents and ideas can join fellow painters at a new art circle.

The Art Circle at the Jinney Ring meets on a weekly basis at the Jinney Ring Craft Centre in Hanbury on a Thursday or Friday morning from 9.30-11.30am.

The group, made up of amateur painters, has no tutor but meets solely on an informal basis to chat and exchange ideas and encourage each other to paint.

The circle is made up mainly of retired men and women, and was started in June. It has 10 members but more are welcome.

The next meeting is on Friday and after that the group will meet on July 7, 13, 20, 27, August 3, 10, 17, 24, 31, and September 8 and 14.
