Printmaking has their Grad show tomorrow night at First Site Gallery (see calender link for more info).

Graduates from 3rd year Drawing please contact me a.s.a.p for more information about the floorplan for our show. Will contact Irene soon to discuss - note am doing my best to meet everyones specifications - but the overall aesthetic of the show is most important so some spaces may need to be shifted.

Many thanks to Paul Compton of third year drawing who sacrificed celebratory drinks last Friday eve to assist first and second year students with the setting up of their work. Paul didn't leave uni till about 10:30pm and by then was too plum tuckered to celebrate the end of the university semester. I know many students were grateful for his support and would like him to be acknowledged for his generosity and wisdom.

Thankyou again Paul!
