Glenys Andrews, an amateur artist based in Kinross awarded a BEM (British Empire Medal) for her services to the local art scene, yesterday said receiving news of her honour was “a delightful surprise.”
Glenys (76) has recently stepped down from a voluntary post as president of Perthshire Open Studios.
She was nominated for inclusion on the Queen’s Birthday Honours List for services to the arts in Perthshire in recognition of her ten years heading Perthshire Open Studios (POS).
