Art lecture explores war links

Daniel Snowman, lecturer, writer, broadcaster and tour leader, will be speaking at the Steyning Centre on Monday on Guerra! Guerra! Music, Art and War: 1800-2000.

He said art had often been stimulated by war, while music included upbeat anthems like the Marseillaise and the sadness of Nimrod every year at the Cenotaph.

The society is a branch of the Association of Decorative and Fine Arts Societies and meets on the second Monday of each month. Members and visitors (donation £5) are invited for coffee at 10am, followed by the meeting from 10.30am to midday. Call 01903 368254 or 01903 816190 for more information.
