Free lunchtime talks, which complement the Victoria Art Gallery’s current exhibition, A Celebration of Flowers: Kaffe Fassett with Candace Bahouth, are to be held at the Guildhall in Bath.
Artist Candace Bahouth
Experts from different backgrounds will explore the subject of gardens and flowers, and the series, which runs through June, ends with a talk by the artist Candace Bahouth.
Councillor Paul Myers (Conservative Midsomer Norton Redfield), Cabinet Member for Economic and Community Regeneration, said: “We look forward to welcoming all four speakers to the Guildhall for what should be a fascinating series of talks.
“I hope that many residents will take the opportunity to enjoy one of these free talks during their lunchbreak.”
