Dear All,
With various finals and forthcoming stress I shall not clog your inboxes with
long listings this term. Instead, I will organise a few trips to the cinema,
botanic gardens or theatre and perhaps a drawing class in the Cathedral's
garden.
If anyone would like me to send them the lecture lists or weblinks to the
various happenings in oxford I would be delighted, just let me know. In the
mean time I am more than willing to forward on any events that people deem
relevantly arty and would like me to publicise (or organise outings to)...for
example, Tim Benjamin and Arne Muus have put on a new production that I'm sure
you will hear about shortly....watch this space....
All the best,
Arty McCARTney
Sun 7th Week
- 12.30pm onwards DRINKS and MUSIC RECEPTION at the CHRIST CHURCH PICTURE GALLERY for the GCR, followed by a short TOUR with the curator.
If you like art, wine and music, this is the event for you and indeed your friends and family. Listen to the Jazz/swing band jam and enjoy the decadence of the afternoon.
Fri 8th Week
1-2pm, an introduction to the drawings of Michaelangelo and Raphael at the Ashmolean Museum, especially reserved for 15 lucky members of the GCR. RSVP to nicola.mccartney@chchc.ox.ac.uk
Dear All,
Hilary Term 2008 is fast approaching and a new beginning for a few of us on the committee. This year I hope to plan various trips to cultural events including exhibition openings, gigs, the Ashmolean to hold Michaelangelo drawings with our bare hands and maybe even a trip to the big smoke!! I'll also keep you updated with various events and lectures related to the CAS (Contemporary Arts Soc) and Music Soc.
Unlike SOME I will actually be using the GCR website to keep you posted and the 'St Aldates' group on facebook, so watch this space if you want your cultural tastebuds tantalized!
In the mean time, below is some important and unchanging info.......
Yours,
Arty McCARTney
