FULHAM WI – EVENTS UPDATE

Meeting at the museum at 10.30am.
39 Steps - Criterion Theatre, Piccadilly - Tuesday 29 May at 8.00pm
Tickets are bought £19.50, payment required asap!!!
Portobello Jubilee Market - Saturday 2 June - 10am to 4pm
We have been asked to man two stalls and will need to be there from 9am to set up and get the water hot! All we need to do is provide the cakes to offer people tea and a bit of cake for £1. Tea and everything else is provided and we keep all the funds raised which will go towards the full bursaries for a course at Denman College which two lucky members will win at our AGM. All cakes and biscuits are welcome, and cakes that we can cut up would be ideal. Beautiful cupcakes are always welcome and we can sell these separately but don't make them too big please! We can collate cakes during the week if that helps you and help on the day will be much appreciated.
Our stalls are at the Golbourne end of Portobello Road, near the craft market and the Portobello Green Vintage Clothes market. There will be lots of bunting and balloons and such like so will make a happy family day out with lots of things to look at and be tempted by!
Parsons Green Fair - Saturday 7 July - 12noon to 5pm
More cakes required and jams and chutneys and anything else you feel like!!! Another fun day which is very sociable and raises funds for us!
The Queen – Art & Image - National Portrait Gallery – Thursday 19 July 2012
To mark the Queen’s Diamond Jubilee, this landmark exhibition brings together some of the most remarkable and resonant images of Elizabeth II made during her reign. From formal painted portraits to commissioned photographs and from press images to works by celebrated contemporary artists, the exhibition charts the evolving representation of one of the most portrayed people of all time, and the influence of this imagery on changing perceptions of the monarchy.
Exploring the startling range of artistic creativity that the Queen has inspired, the exhibition also reveals the radical changes in portraiture and profound social developments since the 1950s. Featured photographers and artists include Cecil Beaton, Pietro Annigoni, Andy Warhol, Annie Leibovitz, Lucian Freud, Thomas Struth and Gerhard Richter. For more information go to http://www.npg.org.uk/whatson/the-queen/the-queen-art-image.php
This exhibition is predicted to sell out quickly, so we will be booking tickets (£6.00 each) for the 6.15pm slot. Please can you let Toto know if you are interested in going to this by Monday, 28 May.
