520 2 # $a This circular, co-signed by Francis Bennoch and Louisa Gann, states: `Proposed Extension to Premises [...] New fields of employment for women technically trained have, year by year, been opened, and in February, 1883, a class for Chromo-lithography, in connection with this School, was started in temporary premises in Red Lion Square; and the work done there has been most satisfactory, in an artistic as well as in a commercial sense. The Committee are most anxious to provide accommodation for this Class on the premises in Queen Square; and, having desired to extend the premises, which have long been quite inadequate to the needs of the School, they are desirous to secure the freehold of the adjoining house, an opportunity for the purchase of which has at length arisen. The cost including repairs, alterations, and new building at the rear, will amount to a sum approaching £7,000. To raise the sum the Committee confidently appeal to those interested in the progress of Female Technical and Art education; and as the opportunity of purchase will be lost if not secured at once, they earnestly solicit a favourable and early response.’
