Special thanks should go to Jan Scriven, Juliet Montgomery, Tracy Fuzzard,<br />

Christopher Lethbridge, Mark Pottle, Lucie Cluver and John Sutton, for all their<br />

hard work in supporting AMREF at Wolfson. Michaelmas <strong>2014</strong> will see a new<br />

AMREF rep in place, when Charlotte Bennett takes over from me. I am very<br />

grateful for all the support I have received, and I am sure that Charlotte will do a<br />

fantastic job next year.<br />

Arts Society<br />

The Arts Society continues to offer exhibition space to a range of artists who<br />

apply, and this year we have enjoyed a good mix of different media. We started<br />

the year with a new initiative: a collaboration with the Pegasus Theatre, an arts<br />

centre in East Oxford specialising in a range of performing arts for young people<br />

which was celebrating its fiftieth anniversary with an exhibition of photographs<br />

by David Fisher. The theatre was particularly keen to reach a new audience and<br />

to encourage links with students. Our next exhibition hailed from closer to home.<br />

We were delighted that Roger Tomlin was persuaded to exhibit his ‘Landscapes<br />

of a summer’s day’ – works in oil on board which he has painted over recent years<br />

in Dorset, Australia, Oxfordshire, North Wales and northern England. This<br />

was followed by Les McMinn’s abstract work ‘On the Edge of Life’, the artist’s<br />

responses to the landscapes of the North of Scotland and India.<br />
