Village Library

We will shortly have a small village voluntary 'Library' in the church where you can pop in and borrow a book to read at your leisure, or sit and read in the peace and quiet of the beautiful churchyard for a while.
Coffee mornings and book events will happen in the summer months so keep an eye on this page for details of dates and times.

Donations of decent quality books welcome. CONTACT US.

Cultural Exchange with Ponches-Estruval in France

Dompierre

Ponches

Through Interreg funding in 2008 we are 'twinned' with the parish of Ponches Estruval in Picardy, France.

Josie Tipler and Anne Howard from the Arlington Arts group visited in 2010 and returned this year with Jim Tipler, musician from Arlington, to Ponches to take part in their Festival De Musique et D'Art.

Here are some of the photos.



We will invite some French musicians and artists from the region to visit our next Arlington Arts Festival - several musicians, artists and representatives from the region came to our festival in 2011.
