The newly renamed The Arts Society Richmond offers monthly lectures on the Arts as well as regular socials, days out to visit places of interest and longer trips around the country and abroad. In September, Sophie Matthews will be talking about Music in Art: many of our historical references for musical instruments are found in works of art. Sophie is one of the foremost players of the bagpipes and early woodwind instruments such as the shawm, rauschpfeife, crumhorm (pictured) and recorder!
In October, History of Art lecturer, Lynne Gibson will speaking about Double Dutch: The Secret Language of Dutch Still Life Painting. To find out more or to become a member, visit theartssocietyrichmond.org.
