VMS Photography Club

By way of introducing more varied activities at VMS we have started our new photography club. It’s a free activity and all shed members who have an interest are encouraged to bring along a camera (and a laptop if you have one to process digital images) and join in. The club will be meeting approximately every 4 weeks on Saturdays at 10am, with the next event scheduled for Saturday February 16th 2019.

This is a very informal group to share ideas and images and to pick up some tips from fellow members. Despite the fact there is no lesson format if you are new to and still learning photography this is an ideal way to learn the basics of photography and to pick up some new skills. If you are a more advanced photographer we welcome your input and hope you can pass on a few of the things you have learned along the way.

The club is lead by shed member Simon Robinson from Perth Light Photography Facebook.com/PerthLight

Garage Sale at the Shed Sunday 17th February 2019

Calling all Members …

As part of our ongoing efforts to raise much needed funds to continue the work of Vincent Men’s Shed, we are planning to hold a Garage Sale at the Shed on Sunday 17th February.

You are able to help by donating your unwanted items for sale, with all monies raised going to the Shed.

The sort of items we are looking for are:

Games & toys
CDs & vinyl records
hand tools
vintage dishes
fishing & camping gear
artwork and jewelry
cameras
clocks
old wooden furniture
kitchen equipment
copper and brass items and collectibles
books such as cookbooks, craft books and Penguin editions (not old textbooks, Mills & Boon or magazines)

Garage Sale at the Shed

if in doubt, ask one of the event organisers, Bruce Carman and Peter Wasser, whether your item(s) might be suitable

Only items in good condition are required. Things that are broken, damaged or not in good working order simply don’t sell, and are not wanted.

Something like a nice old chest of drawers that needs some work would of course be an exception.

If you are able to donate some items, please reply to this email at vincentmensshed@mensshedswa.org.au or speak with Bruce or Peter or the Day Manager at the Shed.

Remember – your donations are essential to help make this event a success.

Cheers

VMS Committee
