Every Story tells a Picture
Led by Jo Hall
For this course we will look at how a line of poetry or piece of prose can suggest a drawing or painting. This may be an illustrative or more abstract interpretation.
Work in any medium or a mixed media approach. Autumn, followed by winter and Christmas themes will feature.
For the first week bring a line of prose, poetry or a song that mentions or describes a season; e.g. 'Now is the winter of our discontent' or 'Spring is in the air'. We’ll think about literal and more abstract ways of encapsulating the words.
Please bring your own materials as detailed below:
Your choice of painting materials
Drawing board plus table easel or block to angle the board,
For wet media paints, brushes, water pots, palette, paper towel
We’ll discuss materials and approaches to this subject at the first session so bring a sketchbook or cartridge paper and drawing materials (pencil or crayon) to work out ideas.

Royal Ballet and Opera Cinema Season: Wolf Witch Giant Fairy
Do not miss this 'enchantingly staged' family folk opera, following the triumphant, Olivier Award-winning run in 2021.
Red Riding Hood is tasked with delivering bread to her Grandmother, deep in the heart of the fairy-tale forest. But en route, Red meets a cunning Wolf who tricks her into taking a different path. Along the way, Red stumbles into a colourful cast of characters, including a scary witch, a talking cat and a rather persuasive Peddler. Join our ragtag band of wild musicians as they guide all the family through this famous tale with new twists, turns, magic and song.

In The Dark We Grow - Exclusive Band Tour
A special one-off expanded band tour for the critically acclaimed folk duo. Following the success of their 2022 release Ink Of The Rosy Morning on Topic Records Hannah & Ben spent much of 2023 touring with the legendary Fairport Convention.
Now, with their new album In The Dark We Grow and a live show line-up featuring the inimitable Jon Thorne (Lamb, James Yorkston) on double bass, Hannah & Ben hit the road for the first time with a band of their own. Already so well known for their moving live performances, this unique musical collaboration promises to be balm for weariest ears.
Since emerging in 2016, Hannah & Ben have been defying all conventions of style, genre and compartmentalisation. A touch of ‘Americana’, yet quintessentially English. Traditional, yet contemporary, with their individual writing style. Playful and instinctive, they make music with such panache and natural chemistry it makes perfect sense.
Hannah Sanders has an alluring mystique and a voice of disarming purity that massages your senses. Ben Savage is a singular guitarist with a sound as distinctive as it is innovative. Together their harmonies and unique stage presence shimmer with an infectious passion and joy for the connection music offers.

The aim of these lessons is to get you playing your first song within 4 weeks of lessons, as no-one takes up guitar to strum random chords, it’s all about the songs.
If you are returning to guitar having not played for some time and can barely remember chords this is a great way of getting back into the swing of things.
If you've never played guitar you need to book on the Absolute Beginners course!
