THE Henley Arts and Craft Guild has been arranging regular Zoom workshops for our members over the past year as we obviously cannot all meet together for demonstrations and painting and craft sessions.
Verena Edwards, our craft programme secretary, managed to book a lovely “wool painting” expert some months ago.
On Friday, 25 members watched over Zoom as Raissa Brown showed us how to make pictures with wool fibres, not from her home in Kidderminster but all the way from St Petersburg in Russia.
She had gone home to see her mother some months ago and for obvious reasons could not get back. So she managed with the help of the guild’s techno wizard, Keith Appleby, to do the job from afar.

Carolina honored 25 faculty members and teaching assistants for their accomplishments with 2021 University Teaching Awards.
Given annually, these awards acknowledge the University’s commitment to outstanding teaching and mentoring for graduate and undergraduate students.
“Throughout a challenging year in the midst of a global pandemic, the winners quickly adapted to new ways of teaching. They persevered to maintain their focus on helping students become critical thinkers and problem solvers, while inspiring them to take on the most important challenges facing society,” said Executive Vice Chancellor and Provost Robert A. Blouin. “Our award winners are shining examples of the University’s commitment to effective, innovative teaching.”
