Film Night – Friday January 4th
Posted in Catering 4 Parwich, Events, Films, Memorial hall on Friday December 28, 2012| Leave a Comment »

Hailed as one of the best films of the millennium, this silent movie, filmed in black & white, has taken the film world by storm.
It’s the late 1920s in Hollywood and handsome George Valentin is a silent movie idol, THE ARTIST. During the premiere of his latest film, Valentin meets Peppy Miller, a star-struck extra and aspiring actress. The two are attracted to each other and Peppy is given a small dancing role in his next picture. As their romance progresses, Valentin’s producer has to cope with a love-struck star who is distracted on the set, Peppy’s career begins to take off, and Valentin fears that a new fad in the movie business – talkies – will ruin him.

There is still plenty of room to join Santa’s little helpers, all beavering away merrily. Cookies, coffee and conversation.
If you are unsure of what you would like to do, there is plenty of advice on hand. See you there.

“Parwich: A Sense Of Place” – art exhibition this weekend
Posted in Arts, Events, Memorial hall on Monday November 12, 2012| Leave a Comment »
The acclaimed wildlife artist Esther Tyson is staging an exhibition of recent work in our stunning modern Memorial Hall. Esther lives in Parwich, and the exhibition presents an opportunity for the local community to see her work, as well as serious collectors of wildlife art.
Esther studied at Carlisle College of Art and the prestigious Royal College of Art. She has exhibited in galleries in London and all over the country. She has also received many accolades and awards for her work.
Esther is renowned for work that reflects her intense passion for lengthy study of wild life in its natural habitat. The work she produces evokes a powerful image of the very essence that she experiences in her observations. The exhibition will feature a wide variety of her work, from her local Derbyshire countryside to the mountains of Nepal and recent underwater studies in Dorset.
The exhibition takes place in Parwich Memorial Hall on Saturday 17th and Sunday 18th November 2012, from 10am to 4pm. Admission is free, and all are welcome!

This lovely romantic film, based on the book Salmon Fishing in the Yemen, tells of a visionary sheik who has a big dream — to bring salmon fishing to the desert. Willing to spare no expense, he instructs his representative to turn his dream into reality. The Prime Minister’s overzealous press secretary latches on for its potential as a ‘good will’ story. Now, this unlikely team will put it all on the line and embark on an upstream journey of faith and fish to prove the impossible, possible.

Evie’s Artistic Afternoons

Come on, let’s have you… it’s time to get your sticky-back plastic & Fairy Liquid bottles at the ready and get creative at Evie’s artistic afternoons at the Memorial hall from 3.30pm to 5.30pm on Thursday afternoons…
…or if you’d just like some company and a chinwag with a cuppa and bickies, come along and see whats cracking off.
The first one was enjoyed by all who attended. A contribution towards the hire charges is £3.00-ish, but will get less as more people attend.
You might discover a hidden talent, who knows? Be there or be square.
