CHAILEY REPAIR CAFÉ
Get Ready for Christmas!

It happens every year, doesn’t it?  You get the carving knife out to serve the turkey and it’s blunt. You get the Christmas tree lights out and they don’t light up. You put your favourite music  on your vintage CD/vinyl player and it doesn’t work.
Fear not – we are open on  9th November and 14th December to help you get
things going again.
Don’t forget that we also can help with computers and printers which are playing up, as well as repairing  wooden items, ceramics, clothing, cycles and repairing/sharpening those garden tools!

We are now getting seriously busy, with over 100 visitors bringing us 80 repairs to October's Repair Café, all of which we  tackled in 3 hours.  But please don’t arrive at 1250hrs with a really complicated repair….! 

Portable domestic items only please – and, sorry, but no fridges or microwaves. We will try to repair your item while you wait and watch what we do, so you’ll be able to fix it yourself next time!! We do not charge for the service, but invite you to make a donation to support our running costs. There is no need to book – just turn up and we will see you as soon as we can.

You’ll find us at St Peter’s Church, Chailey on the A275 at Chailey Green on the second Saturday   of each month (i.e. 9th Nov, 14th Dec, 11th Jan) between 1000hrs and 1300hrs where we’ll have a full Café service including our legendary cakes.  Not sure if we can fix your item?  Email us at chaileyrc@gmail.com  and  we’ll see what we can do to help.

See you  soon!!

A Community-based Venture for Sunday Evenings

Newick Village Hall will be showing
”Firebrand” (15)
November 24th

Starring Jude Law and Alicia Vikander

Another recent release - in Tudor England, Katherine Parr reluctantly agrees to become the sixth wife of the tyrannical King Henry VIII.
Her consent to marry him carries great personal risk, given her predecessors are either vanquished, beheaded or dead! Perceived as a threat by Henry's courtiers, they start to cast doubts about her fidelity and turn the increasingly paranoid king against her – she must keep her wits about her to survive………

We hope that many of you will be able to come and enjoy “FIREBRAND”. As always there is a licensed bar, teas, coffees, cakes and ice cream plus an interval so that there is an opportunity to meet up with friends and have an enjoyable evening out in the village.
Booking in advance will secure seats in the front rows. You can also just come along at 7pm and buy a ticket on the door; the film will start at 7:30pm.

Doors open 7.00pm the film starts 7.30pm.
Tickets are available on the door at £7.00.
During the interval Ice Creams, Tea, Coffee, Cake, and a Bar
will be available

Shopping on the Rialto Renaissance Venice: Antonia Garward-Cevizli

How about a little shopping? Come to Venice with us to visit the Rialto Bridge and the market beyond. We will be going back in time to the 16th Century but in fact little has changed. The first bridge was built of wood and, apart from burning down on various occasions it also totally collapsed during the celebrations for a wedding ceremony.

Not surprisingly it was decided to build a stone bridge and in 1591 the present bridge was completed and built entirely of marble. It also continued to have shops on either side which now sell the famous Venetian glassware, masks and linen. The bridge is also called ‘the Lovers Bridge’ as legend promises eternal love if lovers kiss under the bridge at the exact time the sun sets!

Antonia spent a year at the University of Siena Statale and also lived in Venice. However, her interests are wide-ranging. She has lectured on 15th-century Italian art for the Victoria and Albert Museum and taught Modern Art from Impressionism to Pop at Sabancı University, Istanbul. She has worked as a gallery lecturer at Tate Modern and Tate Britain for a number of years.

We look forward to welcoming you. If you want to become a member of our society, please contact me for further information. Visitors of course are always welcome, £8 on the door please.

Chailey and Newick Painting Group

Annual Art Exhibition, Saturday & Sunday, November 16th & 17th, 10am - 5pm at Chailey Village Hall

Chailey Heritage Foundation
Christmas Market

Pencils are worn down to stubs, brushes are frayed, and paint tubes are empty. Yes, members of the Painting Group have been very busy this year! Now we look forward to sharing with you the fruits of our endeavours in an exciting display of over 100 new paintings, along with unframed work and a huge variety of greetings cards.

As ever, the exhibition will be in support of St Peter & St James Hospice, in particular with our very popular art-on-a-card tombola in which every ticket drawn wins an original artwork by one of our members. (Cash would very much be appreciated for this, thank you.)

We can bake as well as paint! There will be fabulous home-made cakes for you to enjoy (cash again, if possible, please!) and artists to watch as they demonstrate their skills.

Chailey Village Hall provides plenty of parking, there is disabled access and admission is FREE.

We look forward to welcoming visitors old and new to our big weekend – come and join us for art and cake, what better way of spending an hour or two in November!
