Art History
Group Leader: Jill Mouncer jillmouncer@u3a-llandrindod.org.uk
The Art History Group meets on the 3rd Tuesday of each month at 10:30am at The Thomas Shop, Penybont. The meetings are informal but purposeful, informative and very enjoyable.
At the meetings a member of the group gives an illustrated talk on an artist that they have researched and particularly like. Some of our members have joined the group with no knowledge about art at all whilst others are extremely knowledgeable; its a great way to share and to learn. You would be most welcome to join us!
