COMING UP NEXT………
Monday 10 th February - Members’ Evening As we go to press we have the following talks and speakers lined up:
“A Guide to the IA of Merseyside” - Maurice Handley A fully updated and expanded guide to the IA of Merseyside will be published ahead of the 2020 AIA Conference. Maurice is leading the team behind the project and he will outline his approach and some of the highlights.
“Behind the Scenes at National Museums Liverpool” - Roy Forshaw Roy has had close involvement with projects as varied as the about-to-open “Liverpool on Wheels” exhibition and the demolition of the flyover. He will share some of the fascinating details.
“The Liverpool Exhibition Medal of 1886” - Warren Kern “A Mersey Outing” - Warren Kern Warren will offer us not one, but two, presentations. We will take time beforehand to view some associated items.
“The Tales of Hoffmann” - Malcolm Verity Like Offenbach’s original, this may not be quite what it seems. The talk will focus on a small number of important industrial sites, rare in Britain, but thankfully all reasonably close to Merseyside.
As always, we are grateful to these stalwart members for their time in preparing talks and, as usual, the meeting will be at the Quaker Meeting House, starting promptly at 7.00pm.
