The Arts Society Sandwich is excited to host accredited Arts Society lecturer and classical civilisation expert, Stephen Kershaw, who will be delivering a captivating and informative talk.
Ancient Greek painted pottery is admired the world over — and for good reason.
This richly illustrated talk, featuring both slides and video, will help make the beauty and significance of Greek ceramics more accessible and easier to appreciate.
We will explore the forms, styles, subjects, composition, emotional expression, function, and evolution of ancient Greek pottery, while placing these works within the historical, social, political, and religious contexts of the civilisation that created them.
Discover how these remarkable vases were made, why they were produced, and for whom — and gain a deeper understanding of the culture reflected in their art.
🍷 Join us for refreshments from 6:30pm before the talk begins at 7pm.
Non-members are warmly welcomed — £7 on the door or use one of your tokens. (Available to purchase £15 for 3 tokens).
