Information | | Art Appreciation meetings are held monthly on a Wednesday afternoon (1.30-3pm) at Melbourne Assembly Rooms. £2 per person, including tea or coffee, to pay for the room hire. Sessions usually last one and a half hours. Topics for discussion to date have included the 'isms' from Realism to Conceptualism, Women artists, American photography, German Expressionism, the Pre-Raphaelites, Joseph Wright, Marcel Duchamp and conceptual art. We are currently looking at UK Artists and Art Schools. Anyone can volunteer to give a talk; we have had some lively discussions!
The MAD u3a Art Appreciation Programme 2025 covers UK Artists and Art Schools.
We have also arranged trips to art galleries, including Cambridge, Nottingham Contemporary, Leicester Museum and Art Gallery, Birmingham Museum and Art Gallery, and the Barber Institute. |
