The
Cookham Arts Club held its 61st Annual Exhibition at the Pinder Hall
between 17 and 26 August 2002. This is the main event of the Club's
year and it has always attracted wide entry, both from members and non
members. All were of an incredibly high standard and could well have
competed with the Royal Academy Summer Exhibition. |

it is a function of the Club to give encouragement to beginners and to
