At our Annual General Meeting on 1st November 2009 there were some important changes made.

1. It has been decided that the term of membership and corresponding shelf life of our printed directory will be TWO years.

2. The membership fee for a two year term (1st January 2010 to 31st December 2011) will be £150.

3. Members of the committee will be entitled to a reduction in the membership fee of £50.

4. We will no longer set specific dates for Open Studios events but encourage all members to organise their own events and we will publicise them through the directory and website. Members are particularly encouraged to tie in with local events to maximise opportunities for publicity and visitor numbers.
