More information is filtering through about Blaxhall Archive Group's event at the festival, on the 30th June / 1st July. For a peek at the flyer click the image.

Blaxhall Summer Ball is to be held on June 23rd this year in the village hall. It has proved a popular event in years past, and the band "Buckshee" will again be providing the music.
There will be a licensed bar, and a buffet supper is included in the ticket price of £9 (under 12s half price) with all proceeds going to the village hall, which this year would be exceedingly glad of them! The flyer (right) encourages partygoers to "dress up for the occasion" and, although June evenings can be pleasantly warm, I must say this does seem sound advice.

Maggie Grenham will be opening her studio again this coming weekend as part of the Suffolk Open Studios project. Suffolk Open Studios goes on throughout every weekend in June.

Photographer Gillian Plummer and potter Maggie have joined forces this year as "Pure Inspiration" and the studio at Longfields Nursery in Rectory Rd (map) will be open on both days next weekend from 11am to 5pm, free tea and coffee is available.

Other studios open in the Blaxhall area this coming weekend are Simon Trinder - Painting and Drawing at Ardenbank, Wadd Lane, Snape, and Jenny Partridge - watercolour, drawing, painting and prints at Romany Studio, Woodbridge Road, Tunstall.
