Art Week in Old Town Hall
Weymouth old town hall
The Old Town Hall are hosting some artists for Art Weeks, i.e. 29th May to 13th June on lower floor of the Old Town Hall but upstairs will be a focus for OTH, Transition Towns, local history and exhibits from local artists. The Chapelhay Community Partnershp have therefore requested a little help from TTs to assist with refreshments and general things happening at the time.
