Greetings All,

I am Looking for Drawing Classes for my son Alister 7-Year-old Studying at Nayland School year 3. He draws pictures on paper straight out of his mind. He watches his favourite character Videos on YouTube and images sticks to his Mind. I have been trying to get him enrolled at The Suter Art Gallery for the past 2 Terms but unfortunately there are no seats available.

I am looking for a Drawing Teacher, since only an artist can recognise and understand another Artist feelings and creations better. I am trying to improve Alister's communication skills through his Art of Drawing.

Attached Pics of Alister when he started at the Age of 3 on the wall Meerkat standing on its toes and his latest Five Mammoths.

Please contact me Vivian through Email vivajoy19@gmail.com or 0210390211
Thanks for your time

Nelson Repertory Theatre presents "My Fair Lady"
When: 17 - 26 July 2025
Where: Theatre Royal Nelson
Tickets: Book at Theatre Royal or Nelson Repertory Theatre website.

Step into the enchanting world of My Fair Lady, the beloved Broadway classic musical that tells the story of Eliza Doolittle, a spirited Cockney flower girl with big dreams, and Henry Higgins, a brilliant but arrogant phonetics professor. Higgins bets he can transform Eliza into a proper lady of society through speech and manners alone; their unlikely journey of self-discovery, romance and transformation begins.

With charming and witty songs like "I Could Have Danced All Night" and "Wouldn't It Be Loverly”, you are in for a real musical treat; featuring the creme de la creme of Nelson’s acting and singing talent.
