Art in Rock Henry VIII in Tenbury! An event for your diary for Easter weekend (4-6 April) is the annual Art & Craft Exhibition & Sale in Rock Church. Organised by The Friends of Rock Church and Birmingham Watercolour Society member John Instance, this event is reliably worth the trip as there will be plenty of original art and craft work on display in the magnificent interior of the church and homemade refreshments will be served. You could spend a relaxed afternoon browsing the beautifully-staged, exhibits and perhaps come away with a piece of art for your wall or an unusual piece of craft work for yourself or as a gift. If you are an artist or craftworker who might like to exhibit your work you can contact Sheila Nott on 01299 266353 for an entry form.
When the new sign bearing a portrait of Henry VIII was put up outside the Kings Head in Tenbury Wells, regulars spotted a similarity to the landlord! So on Christmas Day landlord Tim Freestone dressed in Tudor costume to appear as Henry VIII, to serve customers their Christmas morning drinks. He said, ‘It was just a bit of fun to share with our customers, who’d spotted that local artist and inventor, Paul Snook, who designed the sign, had made it look like me! Although, to be fair, I do bear more than a passing resemblance!” ‘Henry VIII’ is expected to make more appearances behind the bar on future high days and holidays.
