The Exhibition of Artwork by Betty Mills is now well into its second week, and judging by the number of pictures sold it has got off to a flying start. For all those who have not yet had a chance to visit the exhibition at Y Tabernacl, Upper Mostyn Street, Llandudno, the exhibition runs until the 31st May. But, why not kill two birds with one stone and buy a ticket for second of Betty’s Afternoon Talks (with Tea & Cake). The subject of the talk at 2.30pm on Tuesday, 25th is ‘What’s in a Wildflower Name’.
Entrance to the exhibition is free, but tickets for the talk are £2.50 and are available from the Hospice . Contact Beth on 01492 873665 for details.
Yet another opportunity to visit the lovely garden at Tir Hir, Lon Dryll, Llanfairpwll on Sunday. 16th May. This lovely mature garden is a must for all garden and plant lovers. It has lots of unusual plants and in May the garden will be looking its glorious best. Gates open from 10am – 5pm. Plants for sale. Refreshments available.
Tickets: £2.50 in aid of St David’s Hospice and Mona Fuchsia and Geranium Society.
‘Walkies!’ A Sponsored Dog Walk on Sunday 23rd May: All dogs are being encouraged to bring their well-behaved owners on this reasonably challenging walk of approx. 5 miles, which takes in the Aber Falls (both the big and the little) and the glorious views from the North Wales Path. Unaccompanied humans are more than welcome too! This walk is suitable for any moderately fit person with the correct footwear and sturdy knees. Those with four legs will find it no trouble at all. Registration takes place between 10am and 11am at the Community Room, Yr Hen Felin, Abergwyngregyn.
There is a registration fee of £5 and it is hoped that participants will raise sponsorship on top of this (no minimum amount.) For an information pack, call (01492) 873665.
Tickets are still available for the concert taking place on Saturday, 22nd May by the Birmingham Signing Ladies. This Signing to Music Concert takes place at the Loreto Convent, Abbey Rd. Llandudno.
Time: 8pm – 10pm Tickets: £3 available from St David’s Hospice (contact Beth on 01492 873665)
