Speaker: Angela Diamond. Dulwich Picture Gallery has the enviable distinction of being the world’s first public art gallery. Angela Diamond will tell the absorbing story of how two immigrants from humble backgrounds took the art collection of a king and donated it to ordinary people. Angela will also talk about Tirzah Garwood, who recently was exhibited at the gallery. Tirzah (1908 – 1951) was a multi-skilled artist who spent most of her working life in or near Great Bardfield in Essex and was married to the much better-known Eric Ravilious. Angela has had a life time’s commitment to widening access to education for adults – working in refugee camps for the UNHCR, in Waltham Forest’s Adult Education Service for over thirty years and now both volunteering and working at Dulwich Picture Gallery.
Meetings start with a buffet at 7:30pm followed by a talk at 8:00pm, then discussion at about 9:00pm.
All meetings are free of charge. Voluntary donations welcome. No need to book. If you can, please bring some vegetarian/vegan food and drink to share.
