Food served from  7:30pm  Music starts at 8:30pm
Tickets: £6 in advance

In support of Relay for Life Cancer Research Lincolnshire we’re very pleased to welcome back this unique duo who have stretched the boundaries of what can be done in the acoustic blues genre, by creating the sound of a five piece band played by only two members. Using live looped bass lines they combine harps, guitar, vocals and floor stomp box to give a full band sound.

An evening with Lydia Bauman: L.S. Lowry

Posted by Sim

Tuesday 11th June 2013
Talk starts at 6:00pm  Food served from 7:00pm
Tickets: £10 in advance (incl. a tea or coffee)

This summer, Tate Britain presents a major exhibition of landscapes by the much-loved British painter L.S. Lowry – the first of its kind held by a public institution in London since the artist’s death. Focusing on the best of Lowry’s urban scenes and industrial landscapes , this timely and carefully selected exhibition aims to re-assess Lowry’s contribution to art history and to argue for his achievement as Britain’s pre-eminent painter of the industrial city.
