Women’s Art Group Sessions
AS part of a wider project, Our Freedom: The & Now, you’re invted to take part in FREE workshops to help us explore the important role women played in the brewing industry during WWII. Through this project, we want to honour these overlooked female pioneers who sustained Burton’s brewing legacy during a critical historical moment and whose contributions continue to inspire today’s brewing industry where women are reclaiming their historical role.
Our Women’s Art Group is a space where you can practice creative activities in a relaxing environment with others who are likeminded.
Run by a female tutor, she will advise and guide you in practising skills, sharing ideas, exchanging tips and techniques. Looking at different artists as inspiration and exploring different media to lead to an end piece of artwork.
No prior art experience necessary to come and join this fun and friendly session.

Our Freedom: Then & Now
Our Freedom: Then and Now, is a new programme of community-based events in arts centres and libraries across the UK to mark the 80th anniversary of the end of the Second World War.
This memorable programme will give communities a unique opportunity to reflect on the end of the Second World War and to explore what freedom means for them, then and now. Local people from 60 UK communities will join with artists to create special cultural events, exhibitions and performances that are meaningful to people living in these places and across the UK.
The programme, which is supported by UK Government through Arts Council England and in partnership with Libraries Connected, will be based in arts centres and libraries to build on their established relationships within their localities. An additional 20 celebrations will take place in museums, resulting in a total of 80 communities projects to mark the 80th
anniversary.
