The Glasgow Art Club

Mrs van Outen-About Darling Members, Now, you must pay close attention to this month’s dispatch as next month I willbe far, far away from all method of communication and will not be able to badgeryou with my periodical social propaganda! As the Club looks forward to the quietsummer months, I am taking the opportunity to clear my diary and head for thehills for a holiday. There will be no ‘phone, TV or internet access and I must sayI’m rather looking forward to it. Although, the scantiness of a cosmetic counterand a good hair salon won’t go unnoticed - hopefully not so much by Mr V! I’mhoping that the billiard room will be near completion on my return – the work is moving along at a steady pacealthough apparently slowed a little by “unauthorised personnel” letting themselves in. Surely not! Surely I’m notalone in thinking that being told off by a builder whilst waist deep in floorboards was ever a good look. Shameon you! Well, that’s all from me for now – do remember to get your names in the book early for events – don’twait until the last minute otherwise you run the risk of missing out altogether should the event have to bepostponed or even worse – cancelled. I won’t hear of such a thing! Love Mrs V xx

Friday 25th June - Glasgow Art Club Summer Exhibition Opening 7pm £15

With the focus on relaxed and informal, a delicious seasonal finger buffet will be served following the opening at7pm. There will also be a summery cocktail menu served from the bar all evening – I wonder how far I’ll get if Iask for a Long Slow Comfortable Screw Up Against a Cold Hard Wall. Not far I wager – it contains amongstothers, vodka, gin and whisky. Think I’ll stick to a modest Dirty Martini!! Don’t forget to book.

Thursday 29th June - Unclubbed@theGAC 7.30pm onwards

Following the success of two of Unclubbed‘s regular giggers, there are to be two debut album launches takingplace in the Club later this summer. King Tuts Wah Wah Hut can claim to have given Oasis their big break, wewill however be able to boast being the launch pad for the much more delightful and far less offensive ClairTierney and Chiara Berardelli!

Friday 30th July - Exhibition Opening – time and details to be confirmed

Fashionably vague is how I shall term the arrangements for this event at the moment – I have been unsuccessfulin finding out any more details, which is unlike me, but I’m sure you will be notified accordingly and in goodtime. ‘Tis the height of summer after all dahlings!
