SOME ANSWERS TO FAQs (mainly for readers who are not students) ...
Are you full up yet? Can I book? Is <class> full up still?
There are currently no spare bedrooms on campus and most courses are at their maximum capacity already. To change accommodation already booked is only possible if we have a cancellation or if you find another student to switch with you. The same is true of the courses which are full.
If you do not need accommodation and want to know what might be possible please email
wsdss15@gmail.com and be prepared to be flexible.
Next summer school? Do we have a date and location yet?
AGWSD summer schools are biennial so the next event is in August 2017. Detail on the dates and location are already being established (as at April 2015). We will update this answer when details become public. Expect to see adverts in the Journal and on the AGWSD website during 2016.
Is there a Trade Fair?
There is a trade fair and you can see which traders are attending on this site (see Trade Fair tab). Each trader will be donating a prize to the raffle. Look out for details of these too. We have selected a range of traders to cover the areas of Association activity and to complement the classes taught at summer school. The Fair is open to visitors on Saturday 22nd August (10am - 5pm) and this will also open to summer school students (only) on the evening of Friday 22nd.
What else is happening on Saturday 22nd August (I may wish to visit)
There will be an exhibition of work submitted by Certificate of Achievement candidates (11am - 5pm) on Saturday 22nd August. There will also be presentations about summer school and topics of interest to guild members including displays of work by students at summer school. You can find out more about the venue on this site (see Venue tab).
Can I help?
We welcome guild members who may be able to offer stewarding or other assistance during the week. You may also want to consider placing items for auction on commission or as donations (all proceeds to the AGWSD Bursary Fund). You might even want to sponsor some aspect of summer school! Please get in contact using wsdss15@gmail.com
