The Art Appreciation Group was established in January 2012 and there have been monthly events since that date.
The aim of the group is to promote interest and knowledge in all aspects of art including painting, sculpture, glass, ceramics and jewellery.
This is achieved by visiting a variety of art related places of interest during Spring and Summer months and talks and discussions during Autumn and Winter.
Events are usually held on 1st Wednesday in each month and Autumn and Winter events are held in Jubilee Room at British Legion Hall in Knowle.
Events are planned well in advance and full details are sent to members by email 4 weeks prior to each event.
Past events include guided tours at a number of Art Galleries,
Walsall Leather Museum, Broadhurst Glass Museum, Jewellery Museum and Coventry Cathedral to consider the architecture.
Memorable talks were given by a Micro-artist and an Origami expert.
Recently, the group has considered the life and work of Van Gogh,
David Hockney and Leonardo Da Vinci.
Future topics for talks and discussion include Zandra Rhodes,
JMW Turner and Cartoons and Cartoonists.
Light refreshments are usually included in our events making them both educational and social occasions.
Anyone who is interested in joining this large, friendly group should contact Pam Latham by email at pam.latham@virginmedia.com or
Telephone : 01564 77 2133
