On the Program night 22st March the club has invited Lynette Romano to present on  “Figure Study” .

As this presentation will be of the human body, nudity, mainly upper body, will be shown. This will not be risque  but a  presentation of the human form.  Both the photographer and model are professionals and that it goes without saying that we as members should show them the respect that they deserve.
