Meet up as usual at Clumber Park cafe for around 10.45am - 11.00am, ready to go out into the park, and lose yourself in the world of watercolour, pastel, oils,or whatever, for a couple of hours.Followed by the usual drink and a chat in the cafe to round the day off. A lot of re-vamping has been done in and around the main facilities area of Clumber Park, and many of us now rate it as possibly one of the best of the National Trust Properties when it comes to Plein Air painting.
