During the Summer Lecture Series, each speaker will share their passion for the arts and their identity as an artist. You will discover how each began their incredible artistic journey, their background, techniques, mentors, what drives and/or motivates them and where they see their work taking them into the future. If you have not attended one of our lectures prior to now you are in for a fabulous treat and will, at the same time, learn something new in the process.
