Covid-19:

Margaret Liddell’s group met on 10 June. In July the group is celebrating the 500-year anniversary of Raphael with an Italian luncheon. The group operates a roster system for the homes they will meet in, deciding the subjects for each month and scheduling those who are to bring afternoon tea. The system works well.

 

Group info:
•    Why do you like art?
•    Art has different meanings to different people.
•    What feelings do you have looking at art?
•    What kind of art are you REALLY interested in?
