Excerpt from Collections Historical Archaeological Relating to Montgomeryshire, Vol. 26 Freehand one Second Class in Model Drawing; one passed in Geo metry. Mr. Simpson jones, in seconding the motion, said: I think it a great pity that the Welshpool people, and those in the neighbourhood, do not take a greater interest in the Art Classes; I mean by attend ing them to a greater extent than they do at present. These Classes have been going 011 for ten or twelve years sometimes a large number attend, and at other times a very few, and at the present time there are only a few. Still, from the Report we find that the amount of fees, and the number of those who attend, show just a slight improve ment upon last year; but I think we ought to try to inform people that there are advantages which can be had at their very doors, and that they can learn drawing, carving, painting and modelling, and various other arts, at the small sum of five shillings per ten lessons.
