SUMMARY:Alan Bennett Literary Lunch & Talk at Broadway Golf Club
DESCRIPTION:Join us for a social literary lunch & talk on the talent of English playwright\, author\, actor & screenwriter Alan Bennett. \nWith a glass of fizz on arrival followed by a 2 course lunch\, tea/coffee and a 30 minute talk delivered by writer Adrian Barlow\, this event will be taking place at Broadway Golf Club\, one of the finest courses in The Cotswolds. The dining room enjoys panoramic views across the Vale of Evesham to the Malvern Hills and Black Mountains. \n‘Alan Bennett: the Eeyore of Modern Letters’ \nAlan Bennett has been one of our leading dramatists since the success of Beyond the Fringe in the 1960s. His television series Talking Heads has become a modern-day classic\, as have many of his works for the stage including Forty Years On\, The Lady in the Van\, A Question of Attribution\, The Madness of King George\, an adaptation of Kenneth Grahame’s The Wind in the Willows and The History Boys. \n90 on his next birthday\, he has written:  ‘The real mark of recognition for a writer or any artist\, perhaps\, comes when the public wants him or her to die\, so that they can close the book on that particular talent\, stop having to make the effort to follow the writer any further\, put a cork in the bottle.’ \nThis talk will ask how we should recognise and define Bennett’s particular talent and achievement today\, more than sixty years after his first appearance in Beyond the Fringe. \nAdrian Barlow has been a teacher and writer all his life. He taught latterly at Madingley Hall\, the University of Cambridge’s  Institute of Continuing Education\, and was successively Chair and President of the English Association. \nTickets £40  (Limited to 48 places) \n(to include 2 course lunch\, glass of fizz\, tea/coffee and talk) \nBroadway Golf Club: \n \n\n  \nSpeaker: Adrian Barlow \n \n

SUMMARY:2 Day Watercolour Masterclass with Hazel Soan: Figures & Flowers
DESCRIPTION:This 2 day masterclass explores watercolour’s wet into wet blending technique with renowned artist Hazel Soan. The workshop is geared to an intermediary level of skill but both an adventurous beginner and a seasoned professional would doubtless enjoy the experience as watercolour reveals its wonders! \nWe will use two different subjects\, figures and flowers\, both of which are subjects that benefit from the organic liveliness that wet into wet blending allows in painting. The soft blending that the wet into wet technique enables\, means the watercolourist can make paintings feel more like what we see and enjoy at first sight. Rich blends\, soft edges\, lost and found passages of colour\, description without unnecessary definition\, a suggestion of movement\, a hint of time – all these aspects create life in a painting. \nThe first day’s workshop concentrates on painting figures\, possibly in a cafe setting\, and will be a hall based masterclass exploring the use of wet into wet watercolour blending to enhance the suggestion of liveliness and movement. We will work from reference photographs. The first day will take place in the Lifford Hall in central Broadway. \nThe second day’s workshop explores the use of wet into wet blending for representing the organic nature of flowers in the spectacular private gardens of Springfield House in Broadway. We will start with individual blooms and then paint a wider scene\, but as we are painting from life\, specific subjects will only be determined on the day dependent on the weather\, the light and the flowers blooming around us. \nTickets £220 – limited to 15 places \n(Includes a light lunch on the second day) \nTickets will be going on sale to the public at 10am on Friday 26th January 2024\, and 1 week earlier for festival benefactors.\nDo consider becoming a Benefactor (for as little as £50) to secure priority booking for all our 2024 events. Benefactor applications are now open.\nAbout the tutor: \nHazel Soan is a British artist working out of studios in London and Cape Town and on location throughout the world. Her work is represented in private and public collections worldwide\, including the National Portrait Gallery and the Ritz. Hazel has held numerous solo exhibitions\, mainly in London and the UK\, but also in Venezuela\, Namibia and Zimbabwe. She has participated in mixed exhibitions\, including Royal Academy\, Barbican Centre\, Midland Open\, Mall Galleries\, and David Shepherd Wildlife Foundation.\nHazel is a natural and talented communicator and became popular for her television role as an Art Expert on Channel 4’s Watercolour Challenge and her own series\, Anglia TV’s Splash of Colour.\nHer passion for painting is shared through books\, DVD films\, workshops\, lectures and painting holidays\, demonstrating the vibrant immediacy of the watercolour medium and the properties of watercolour pigments. She is the author of more than 20 books and contributes articles regularly to The Artist magazine and other art titles. \nMaterials List: \nPAPER 100% cotton paper – eg Saunders Waterford\, Arches\, Khadi  – rough surface 140lb+ in sketchblocks\, or loose sheets and drawing board.

SUMMARY:Tony Iommi of Black Sabbath in conversation with the BBC's Nick Owen MBE
DESCRIPTION:Without Black Sabbath there wouldn’t be heavy metal\, they defined an entire genre. Tony Iommi’s detuned guitar style and deep resonating dark riffs made them sound like no other band.\nTony will be in conversation with his close friend\, the BBC’s Nick Owen at the new Cidermill Theatre in Chipping Campden. They’ll cover his early years and relationship with music growing up\, the accident that ultimately led to the birth of metal\, early influences\, the formation of Black Sabbath\, tales from the road and the very first Heavy Metal ballet experience… There will be a Q&A session at the end\, ticket-holders will be given the opportunity to submit questions in advance. \nAbout Tony Iommi:\n\nBirmingham’s Tony Iommi co-founded the pioneering heavy metal band Black Sabbath\, and is the band’s guitarist\, leader\, primary composer\, and sole continuous member for over five decades. He is considered one of the trailblazers and pioneers of heavy music. Overcoming the loss of fingertips in a sheet metal guillotine before his career had really started\, he was determined to continue\, and the results speak for themselves. Later in life he dealt with Grade III lymphoma continuing to work on a new record that went to number one globally.  With around 100 million record sales\, a New York Times bestselling autobiography\, 4 Grammy’s\, induction into both US and UK Music Halls of Fame and numerous awards\, he’s part of rock’s royalty. \n\nAbout Nick Owen MBE:\nNick Owen has been broadcasting on radio and television for more than fifty years\, mostly on tv. Born and brought up in Hertfordshire\, he has spent more than half his life living and working in the West Midlands. He is perhaps best known for his enduring on air partnership with Anne Diamond\, both in the 1980s at the dawn of breakfast television and in the 1990s when they hosted Good Morning with Anne and Nick together. Nick also spent some years in the 80s and early 90s as ITV Sport’s main presenter with his regular show\, Midweek Sport Special. During this time\, he also anchored the Olympic Games of 1988 and the World Cup of 1990. He has presented BBC Midlands Today since 1997.

SUMMARY:Abstract Landscapes: 2 Day Workshop with Rachel Cronin
DESCRIPTION:Approaches to abstraction: Exploring shape and colour\n“Like a good poem\, a good abstraction attacks your feelings before your understanding.” Robert Genn \nIf you’ve wanted to create more abstract work and are interested in exploring new approaches to contemporary landscape painting\, then this workshop is just for you.  \nWorking with landscape artist Rachel Cronin you will spend two days receiving structured tuition on both the formal elements of making art like colour\, tone\, pattern and shape and the exciting ways you can break the rules of landscape painting. Because abstract painting is such a broad subject the focus will be on abstract use of colour and simplification of form and composition in this workshop.  \nDay one – based at Snowshill Manor Gardens (National Trust) \nOn day one you will begin with some expressive landscape sketches and then spend the day editing\, simplifying and reconfiguring elements to create several vibrant collages that simplify and abstract the landscape.  \nWe will spend our first morning gathering information from the grounds of the beautiful Snowshill manor by experimenting with several expressive drawing techniques such as using our non-dominant hand\, blind contour drawing and continuous line drawings.  \nWe will take ourselves on a colour finding walk and use our pencils and crayons to create collage papers of the shades and moods that we find in our venue. \nRachel will also talk you through an exercise that encourages you to focus on mass\, shape and line so that we begin to think about our paintings as an arrangement of differently scaled elements rather than trees\, flowers and borders. \nDuring the afternoon we will explore how different shapes relate to each other by using our collage papers and sketches to create new compositions.   \nDay two – based at Willersey Village Hall \nWe will begin day two by looking at our studies from day one and selecting one or two that grab our attention. We will work these up into a painting using a 30cm-by-30cm wooden painting panel that will be supplied. Rachel will demonstrate ways of working with a limited palette of acrylics so that you can create the colours you want from your paints\, paying particular attention to saturated and desaturated colours. \nYou will receive guidance on both how to start and how to build up a painting by creating textures that give your work a sense of history and depth. We will also spend time exploring the contrast between soft and hard edges and using dry media on top of our paintings. \nDay two will also help you to explore how far you want your work to venture into abstraction as we investigate new colour schemes and ways of simplifying our work further.  \nFor day 1 you will need: \n\nA portable sketching kit to include:\nA sketchbook (it doesn’t matter what size but you will need to carry it around!)\nA selection of pencils\, charcoal\, a rubber and a sharpener\nA brush pen\nA selection of colour pencils to include watercolour pencils\, Caran d’Ache Neocolour crayons\, coloured pencils\, Stabilo Woody crayons\, oil pastels\, soft pastels.\nA pair of scissors and a glue stick\n\nFor day 2 you will need: \n\nYour acrylic paints to include Lemon Yellow\, Ultramarine or Cobalt Blue\, Burnt Sienna\, Crimson\, and Paynes Grey\nA set of brushes suitable for use with acrylics\nA jar for holding your water\nA palette\nKitchen roll\nYour drawing kits and sketches from day one\nPalette knives or paint shapers if you have them\nSpare canvases\, boards or paper if you would like to work across multiple paintings\n\nRachel will also be bring spare crayons\, brushes and paint colours\, so do not panic if there is something you don’t have! There will also be a chance to look through the work of other artists on day two and all students will receive handouts on techniques and colour theory. \nNote: This will be a workshop for those with some experience of painting. \nTickets £210 (13 places) to include the cost of entrance to Snowshill and a 30cm x 30cm wooden painting panel \n \n  \n  \n  \n  \n

SUMMARY:Expressive Landscapes with Rachel Cronin: 3 Day Abstract Workshop
DESCRIPTION:This 3 day workshop will help you loosen up and create expressive and bold landscapes using the beautiful surroundings of Stanton Guildhouse as inspiration working with landscape artist\, Rachel Cronin. \nThe aim of this course is to help you free yourselves from the need to create representational work in order to create work that expresses how you feel instead. If you have been wanting to let go of accuracy and loosen up then this is for you. Rachel will show you how to work across multiple pieces so that if you get stuck on one painting\, you can move on to the next. This will help you to view your work with more objectivity and less judgement as you return to it multiple times across the weekend. The focus will be less on creating finished paintings and more on helping you build a toolkit of techniques and approaches so that you can add these to your own creative practice. \nThere will be plenty of demonstrations so that you can see how to mix paint of the right consistency and colour for your work\, and you will also have the opportunity to experiment with creating texture by scraping and sanding back paint\, using glaze mediums and texture paste\, as well as using thick and thin paint. You will spend time exploring both soft and hard edges by pushing and dragging paint\, using cloths to smudge out colour and masking off with tape to create strong contrast. All students will receive help and guidance throughout the workshop\, with individual tuition throughout to help you establish your personal creative motivations. \nWe will use the Art Room at Stanton Guildhouse as our base but you can expect to be outside in the beautiful grounds at Stanton Guildhouse with its far reaching views from the Cotswold escarpment. \nPlease note that the Art Room is not wheelchair accessible and is up a series of steep\, external steps. For more information about access\, please email workshops@broadwayartsfestival.com \nThis workshop is for those with some experience of painting. \nLight lunch will be provided on day 2 & 3\, please bring a lunch with you for the first day. \nTickets £390 (12 Places) \nTickets go on sale through the website at 10am on 17th March. \nNOTE: There is beautiful onsite accommodation available to book at Stanton Guildhouse – email info@broadwayartsfestival.com to enquire/book. \n  \nDay One: \nOn day one we will gather information from our surroundings whilst using expressive drawing techniques like blind contour and non-dominant hand drawing. You will also be encouraged to stay present to whatever the landscape is showing you and explore how these responses inform your marks and lines. After some initial warm up sketches\, we will move onto using viewfinders to create thumbnail sketches. This will help you to observe and understand the underlying structure of the landscape and see how different elements like fields\, hedgerows\, trees and houses are arranged on the picture plane. We will then take these sketches and create several slightly bigger painted versions that allow us to begin to explore brush marks and a limited colour palette. We will work with only a selected number of actual marks so you will be able to work towards looseness and observe that even a small scale up will change the way you make marks.  \nDay Two: \nOn day two we will scale up further still and begin to look at paint application\, transitions and the principles of contrast. We will take a couple of our sketches and use them as inspiration for some larger pieces of work where we explore brush-craft and paint application in more detail. We will experiment with a selection of tools to create texture and variation within our painted surface such as wire brushes\, soft rags\, masking tape\, palette knives\, silicone scrapers and cut-up credit cards. As the day progresses\, we will begin to introduce different acrylic paint mediums such as texture paste and glaze medium.  \nDay Three: \nHaving spent two days using a limited colour palette\, day three will be spent exploring different types of colour groupings. We will explore bright\, saturated colours as well as desaturated\, neutral colours and you will be able to create new work using a different type of colour story. We will also explore composition in more detail\, referring back to our thumbnail sketches to help us create focus and contrast. The last day will draw to a close with a celebration of your work and a chance to share your experiences. \n\nYou will need to bring:\n\n\n\nA portable sketching kit to include:\nA sketchbook (it doesn’t matter what size but you will need to carry it around!)\nA selection of pencils\, charcoal\, a rubber and a sharpener\nA brush pen\n\nDry media such as colour pencils\, crayons and pastels if you have them\n\nYour acrylic paints to include Lemon Yellow\, Ultramarine or Cobalt Blue\, Burnt Sienna\, Crimson\, and Paynes Grey\nA set of brushes suitable for use with acrylics\nA jar for holding your water\nA palette- a Stay wet palette\nKitchen roll\nPalette knives or paint shapers if you have them\nRachel will provide 2 wooden panels for each participant (included in the ticket price). Please bring spare canvases\, boards or paper if you would like to work across multiple paintings\n\n\n\nRachel will also be bring spare crayons\, brushes and paint colours. There will also be a chance to look through the work of other artists on day two and all students will receive handouts on techniques and colour theory.\n\n  \n \n  \n\n  \nStanton Guildhouse\n \n  \n  \n \n
