The Art and Architecture Group was founded to promote the appreciation and understanding of these twin subjects amongst our members and to increase our collective knowledge. We do this by promoting a series of events throughout the year, the principal event is a three night four day residential study visit to a city or area of artistic and architectural value and interest. During the stay we arrange visits to galleries and buildings of interest as well as leaving time for participants to make their own explorations. These visits are supported by talks, film shows, and more local visits to galleries and buildings throughout the year. Events are advertised individually by slides prior to the monthly meetings, by email notifications via the u3a Beacon system and on this website. There is no limit to the size of the group membership but individual events will have limits according to venue capacity or transport arrangements.
