Wednesday, 7 May 2025: FRANCIS BACON, by Frank Woodgate
Until his death in 1992, Bacon was regarded as Britain’s greatest 20th Century artist, and his dramatic images can be exquisitely beautiful and shocking at the same time. Perhaps more than any other artist, he captured the darkness at the heart of the human experience. Come to learn how his work explores abjection, nihilism and hope!

Wednesday, 4 June 2025: The AGE of JAZZ, by Sandy Burnett
Jazz is one of music’s most important genres: a fascinating blend of rigorous structure, creativity, close-knit ensembles and imaginative improvisation. Back by popular demand, a musicologist and gigging musician, Sandy will shed light on jazz from the inside. His talk covers the early years of jazz up to WWII. Swing by one of our most entertaining lectures of the season!
