It is a week to go until Penzance based charity Penwith Environment Network’s (possibly 24th?) annual general meeting. Traditionally meetings were held in The Dolphin pub, and nowadays Redwing Gallery is PEN’s kind host.
Come along to renew memberships, meet new people interested in carrying PEN forward, and celebrate all that PEN has achieved so far.
Thanks to Ros & Peter, this exhibition starts today, Saturday 12th September, upstairs at Redwing Gallery, Wood St. Penzance.
A mixture of 2D and 3D artwork is on display, and the exhibition runs for a whole month. The gallery proprietors are donating all entry fees (£10 per entry) to PEN.

A group led by Jason Applebee from Cornwall Wildlife Trust recently finished laying a hedge along a the edge of Millennium Woods. This was a follow up to the work they started on the hedge last year and the year before. Thanks everyone, for braving the wild weather and completing such a fine hedge habitat.
