“Members open on different dates and times, so it’s always best to check before you set off to make sure you aren’t disappointed and miss the artist(s) of your choice.”
A public launch will take place in Cathedral Square on Saturday, June 2, from 9am – 5pm, during which people can meet some of the artists and pick up a copy of the PAOS 2018 brochure.”
