Current Programme of Events has Been Postponed

Maggie's current programme of talks has been suspended in the light of the present health emergency. They will recommence in the autumn when hopefully, conditions will have improved. Please check back later in the year, many thanks...
"I can’t wait for ‘Talking Pictures’ to start again in the autumn! Maggie shares her knowledge in a very generous and unstuffy way. You are never made to feel inferior or silly as she encourages everyone to participle and values all comments."
"I like Maggie’s friendly informality in conveying quite complex ideas; she is deeply engaged with her material, and I think also engages quite comfortably with her audience while wearing her learning lightly."
"This was exactly the sort of thing one needs in an art lecture – a chance to listen and look without being talked down to or lectured at."
