Saved!

Thanks to pressure - and common sense - and some generous benefactors, the Art Room has been saved!

This blog will quietly retire, but the news will continue here...

Well done everybody!

Important meeting tomorrow...

Tomorrow at 10 am - there will be a meeting between the agents of the owners of the FE Centre (which includes The Art Room) and possible purchasers.

If the joint offer being made by St Mary's Church in Rye and he Fletcher in Rye CIC is accepted...the Art Room will be saved.

Fingers crossed - there'll be more news here as soon as there is some!
