A rare treat for Andover
Chapel Arts Studios were really very excited about the Gold Run: Remix touring show which took place 28th March to 9th April 2013. With the help of the ever wonderful Pallant House Gallery, James Lake and his work left the Lightbox in Woking and came to Andover.

 

Madeline Edmonds, Founder Trustee of Test Valley Arts Foundation, was awarded an MBE in the New Year’s Honours list for services to the Arts and to the community in the Test Valley, Hampshire.
Turning the redundant Victorian chapel in St Mary’s Cemetery into the superb Chapel Arts studios was her vision.

 

Roy Perry, Chairman of Test Valley Arts Foundation stepped down after six years at the end of 2010. When Roy retired as a Euro MP, it was Madeline Edmonds who leapt into action to secure him for Test Valley Arts Foundation. At a brief ceremony at Chapel Arts studios on 15 December 2010, Madeline said: “Roy has been a champion for the Arts, and for Test Valley Arts Foundation in particular.”
The new chairman, Derek Jeffrey, pledged to continue to develop the work of TVAF and said: “Roy Perry will be a hard act to follow.”
 

Hard on the heels of the successful launch last summer of Test Valley Borough Council’s new tourist leaflet Parish Churches of Test Valley comes a new edition of THE CHURCHES OF TEST VALLEY by Bryan and Diana Beggs.

The book is being sold to raise funds for Test Valley Arts Foundation which was established in 1991 by the late Michael Colvin MP.

The book maintains the same high quality presentation as the first edition but at a reduced price of £15. It is now on sale in tourist information centres and local bookshops or can be obtained from Test Valley Arts Foundation on 01264 738083 or by email info@testvalleyarts.org. Postage and packing is an additional £3.
