SAVE THE DATE!

 We have two very important upcoming ARTES events: 

First, our annual Glendinning Lecture will take place at 6.30pm on Thursday 29th May at the Instituto Cervantes in London. This year’s speaker will be Emeritus Professor Peter Cherry of Trinity College, Dublin, who will deliver a lecture on ‘Problems in Velázquez’. Peter’s work will be known to many of us and this is bound to be a stimulating and fascinating talk.

Second, our AGM will be held this year in London on Monday 9th June. It will begin at midday at the National Gallery, and a buffet sandwich lunch will be offered to members. We will then travel together by public transport to the new V&A East Storehouse, where we will view objects from the museum’s collection and the mudéjar Torrijos ceiling from Toledo. Paperwork for the AGM will be sent out to Membership a month in advance.

Further details for both events are to follow. We hope to see as many members attend as possible. For now, save the dates in your diary!
