Thursday, 17 November 2016, 3.30pm – 4.30pm.
As part of a series of talks accompanying the exhibition at Shrewsbury Museum and Art Gallery of the work of Margaret Rope, one of the greatest stained-glass artists of the early twentieth century, the Friends of Shrewsbury Museum have invited Martin Crampin (University of Wales Centre for Advanced Welsh and Celtic Studies) to give a talk on another, earlier, stained glass artist with Shrewsbury connections.
David Evans was born in Wales but moved to Shrewsbury to work with John Betton where he established himself as a central figure in the development of Gothic Revival stained glass in the first half of the nineteenth century.
The lecture is open to all. Admission is by ticket, and booking is essential. Tickets are free to Friends of the Shrewsbury Museum and Art Gallery, and £3 for non-members. Tickets are available from the Shrewsbury Museum Visitor Information Centre (01743 258888).
