It's that time of the week again - time for another update from Old Bolsover Yard.
Going, going, gone
Last Saturday's Courtyard Programme event saw Bolsover Art Group taking over the yard. After a week of very wet weather thankfully the rain held off for most of the day meaning that the group were able to display some of their fabulous hard work, the paintings were beautiful.
I understand that the event paid off for them and paintings were sold - hopefully they're now hanging in pride of place in their new homes. It's wonderful to be able to support local community groups and even better when they go home happy at the end of the day.
There will be a few new members at the next meeting and plenty more art to be produced, maybe they'll be back again at Old Bolsover Yard in the future.

Bolsover WI
Proving that they are not just about 'jam & Jerusalem' the next date for your diary is Saturday 22nd June when our very own WI will take over the yard and showcase what they are really about. You may have noticed some of the posters that they have produced on social media over the last few days.
Try and make time in your schedule to come and support another local community group.

And the work goes on
I've been mentioning over the last few weeks about the work that we have been doing at Old Bolsover Yard to improve the facilities. I can report that all the plastering is now done and a new floor laid so now it's time to get the plumbers back.
If you are visiting over the next few days hopefully you will also be able to see our new gates as they arrive on site and are installed. I'm not going to tell you too much as I don't want to spoil any surprises.
We have been working hard to improve Old Bolsover Yard and would like to just take time to thank all the other small businesses that we have been working with to make it happen.
Until next time........
