Visiting the Fashion and Textile Gallery
8 Hill St
Surrey Hills NSW.

You are personally invited to come with members of the Australian Costumers Guild to visit the Darnell Collection @ the Fashion and Textile Gallery in Surrey Hills, Sydney.

This is to confirm that bus trip to Sydney is going ahead.

When: 7th May 2010
How: Murray's Coaches

Which bus do we wish to depart on?
Time: Bus Departs Jolimont Centre 7am for arrival at central railway station Sydney 10:30am. Or the 8am bus that arrives at central railway station 11:30am.

The Darnell Collection [Fabric and Textile Gallery] in Surrey Hills and opens at 10am and closes at 5pm. Entry fee is $5.00.

See below link below for current exhibition.

Wish list of other stores to visit:

The Fabric Store - Surrey Hills

Please let me know your wish list store.

I think we will only have time for lunch and may be 3 stores to visit.

Return Journey via Murray's: Buses leave central at 5pm [arrv CNB 8: 15pm] and 6pm [arrv CNB 9:15pm] Which one will we catch home?

You will be required to buy your own bus ticket, have spending money and entry fee to the gallery. Any food you want to eat should be brought with you. May I suggest you take some water with you to drink on the bus or any snacks you would like and a good book.

If you want to go with us please let me know by the 10th of April. Then we will look at bus tickets and hopefully snare on of the seats on special.

Please RSVP via email - act@australiancostumersguild.org.au so we can work out which bus departure/return to book.

Hi Pink,

I was thinking of going along to that exhibition, I may as well wait until then and catch up.

Hi,
Some ACT members are coming down for this exhibit. We will get into Central approx 10.30am providing traffic conditions are favorable. Shall we meet at the Gallery @11am? Have lunch together, then have a spot of fabric window shopping/splurging? Our bus leaves central for the return journey at 6pm.

Gallery entry, lunch and spending money are your responsibility. A PM will be sent out with the group leader's mobile number the day before departure.
