Art and the City

I thought I’d just share some pictures with you from our final event of the year, Art and the City, which happened yesterday. The format was a guided walk around City of London with the excellent Colin Davey, a City of London Guide; a very welcome hot lunch at the Barbican; a tour of the Guildhall Art Gallery and its wonderful Roman Amphitheatre, again led by Colin; the usual London Historians pub sesh afterwards. It was a lovely sunny day mostly, but very nippy indeed. My thanks to the hardy ten London Historians who braved the elements and, I believe, had a wonderful day out. I know I did. We will be introducing a lot more of this sort of thing in 2012. Unusual formats. Our member guides (of whom there are now at least a dozen) are very enthusiastic about helping to put together this programme.

These pictures barely scratch the surface of our day, but you get the idea. Thank, Colin.
