Art Appreciation

Status:Active, open to new members
Coordinator:
When: Monthly on Tuesdays 2:00 pm-4:00 pm
3rd week
Venue: Sun Hotel

At present we are working through the alphabet to choose our artworks, artists or anything else to do with art.

We each take turns to introduce and show our choice of artworks on the hotel's telly or, very rarely, on our phones/tablets/iPads if the TV isn't available. The images are gathered and emailed to all in advance. No problem if you're not confident with technology. We view people's choices via a usb memory stick for the TV, organised by the group leader, or we share our devices with those who don't use one. 
“The sessions are friendly, light-hearted with frequent laughter when we hear what shenanigans some of the artists got up to. No humour, of course in relation to those artworks addressing war and other historical or more recent social and political issues around the world that group members become aware of and wish to share. Plus we look at work from any era.”
There is a fee for room hire, around the cost of a cup of coffee each, but it's only once a month.
