Dear Ladies,
Welcome back to IWG Tunis!
To everyone who either stayed in Tunis celebrating Ramadan or went to different destinations for holidays, I hope all of you have had a great summer time.
September is approaching us. You must be interested in knowing what are new things in IWG in September. Here are some highlights.
I. New activity groups inside IWG:
Many thanks to all those active ladies with creative ideas, we will have two new groups to accommodate everyone's different interest.

2. CLASSES FOR OIL PAINTING
On popular demand Sandhya is opening her Studio to Ladies keen on learning oil painting. The course is designed to suit beginners and advanced learners. The focus of the classes will be on painting alla prima but will draw also from traditional methods to strengthen drawing and composition skills and explore the techniques of old masters.
Classes begin on 11 September, Tuesday. Medium of instruction is English but for those speaking French the course will work just as well.
For more information contact Sandhya on 22704078 or email at sandhya02sharma@yahoo.com

3. on parle français
This is an existing group headed by Chrystelle and Martine.
The purpose of the group is of course learning and practicing French. With Chrystelle and Martine's good care, the group has been successfully running through past 6 months.
As a new start in September, the group is highly welcoming IWG members to join their new groups. Group members are normally gathering once a week on Friday.
Everyone (no matter old or new member) who is interested in joining the group, please contact Chrystelle on chrysfaure@yahoo.fr or Martine on martine.soullez428@dbmail.com
4. Photo-shooting Group
This is also an existing group. This group was initiated by me and successfully running through since 10 months. We invite professional photographer, Ulrich Munstermann as our teacher for photo course, indoor and outdoor photo-shooting exercises. The group is highly appreciated by many members.
Ulrich plans to start a new photo course in September. If you are interested, please contact "iwgtunis@hotmail.co.uk"

III. IWG September Coffee Gathering
Our next coffee gathering is going to be on September 20th, Thursday at 10am at the Palace Hotel, Gammarth.
This is also our first gathering after the summer break. Charlotte de Koch who is our IWG member has volunteered to present us her passion about fiber art. Her presentation topic is going to be "Crossing Lines - The many faces of fiber art". Charlotte told me that she learnt from her grandmother how to sew, knit and crochet when she was only 5-year-old. Now, she loves fiber art. To let more people know about fiber art, Charlotte is going to build up a fiber art group for IWG ladies and share her knowledge and skills with everyone.
Please sign up the coffee gathering with "Sept coffee" in the subject line to "iwgtunis@hotmail.co.uk" before September 17th.
September for some new members is a starting month in Tunis. I take this opportunity to highly welcome all new members and hope, you will enjoy IWG's gatherings and events, know new friends and have an easy start of your new life in Tunis.
Welcome to IWG Tunis!
See you soon,
