The Rt Hon Stephen McPartland

Local MP Stephen McPartland visited the exhibition of work by members of the Stevenage Arts Society held this month at the Denington Galleries at Springfield House.  Earlier in the year he had tried his hand at pottery, using the specialist facilities at Springfield House, ably instructed and assisted by experienced potter Vivienne Western.  Stephen was pleased by the result and that it was included in the exhibition.

Stephen said "The standard of work in the exhibition was amazing and it was a surprise and real honour to have my bowl displayed. I had great fun making the piece and would like to thank Vivienne for her patient support."
