The group aims to discuss art from any, and all media, and from all periods. Topics covered to date include Picasso; the Pre-Raphaelites; portraits; pictures of babies; Vincent van Gogh; summertime art; fraud in art; and Pompeian art.
We aim to be participative, thus meetings so far have included both presentations and discussions.
Topics are chosen by the group and all offers to lead on a subject are gratefully received.
All meetings are open to all u3a members
