A cultural look at depictions of Christmas in art and film

with Danny Wells

Wednesday December 4th at 7.30 (doors open 7pm) Warslow Village Hall, SK17 0JL

This Yuletide Offering is a pot-pourri, exploring aspects of the Christmas season and customs though art. In this talk we will travel from the Nativity right through to James Stewart and It’s a Wonderful Life!

As many will know, Danny is our regular speaker at Christmas and this year we are honoured to host the World Premiere of this talk!  Danny is a former history teacher, community worker and also has an MA in Architectural History. He particularly enjoys ‘unlocking the past’ of social and cultural history.  His website ‘www.history-talks.co.uk’ will tell you more about his talks and other activities.

Our annual raffle will be held in aid of the Air Ambulance which Danny will draw after his talk.  We would be grateful for any donations of prizes – large or small – please bring them along or let me know and I can collect if you’re not able to come to the meeting. Last year we raised nearly £300 so let’s see if we can beat that!

Doors will open at 7pm to give you time to have a drink, a cake and a chat! No need to book – just turn up. Entrance is just £4 including mince pies and crackers. 

We are always grateful to receive cakes to share at our events.  If you can help please let Elspeth know in advance.
