Felipa Open day Newark College of Violin Making-1 July (3) Tech: Open day Newark College of Violin Making 24 Jun 17

Newark College of Violin Making and Repair is in the news due to visa difficulties experienced by its foreign students.

But apart from that, if you are interested in the making and/or repair of stringed instruments and live anywhere near Newark (England), you may like to attend the college open day. If you would like to learn a bit about the college and violin-making, there is an open day Sat 1 July

Are any of you familiar with the college? Can you bring instruments in for valuation and/or repair? Maybe they would like donations of old instruments to practice on.

re the case for extension of visas, see advice re letter writing also on the facebook page or in the provocatively titled thread about UK government attacks violin making. If you didnt look at that thread, you may want to read this article http://newarkadvertiser.co.uk/news/2017/06/22/students-face-deportation

Or if you'd rather just learn about the everyday work of the college, I hope you can attend the open day.
