Arts +
Arts + has been developed in response to feedback from our members who were keen to get involved in an even wider programme of local events. Our first event in July was a very successful workshop on Paper Conservation and Bookbinding run by our very own professional restorer and long-standing member Annie Elliott.
In September, members were treated to a virtual tour of The Vatican Museums and Sistine Chapel. Led by our expert Rome tour guide, Stuart Harvey we skipped the queues, avoided the tourists and shared a memorable close up view of the glories of the Sistine Chapel.
We want our Arts + programme to showcase the enthusiasm and skills of our membership. We know there are lots of our members with craft skills, artistic talent and personal stories to share about their love of the arts. What we don’t know is who you are. So, if you feel you could present a short talk over coffee, lead a guided walk, run a workshop or deliver a small group lecture on your specialist interest then simply contact Keith at: marketing.tasnw@gmail.com and we can work together to plan a session in the coming year.
Future Events
Our next Arts+ programmes will once again be led by two of our members:
In November, Christine Digman will lead a hands-on workshop on botanical drawing
