Due to Government guidelines on coping with the pandemic and the closure of both Ludlow Assembly Rooms and St Laurence's Church we have had to suspend our monthly talks and cancel our Spring exhibition. As soon as things are up and running again we will let you all know.
Stay safe and well

Please Note: This Event Has Been Cancelled
Spring Exhibition 2020
Now that spring is in the air, we need to set things in motion for our spring exhibition (22nd May - 1st June 2020) and we need a team of volunteers to help organise it. There are a multitude of tasks required to be done and most are quite easy and won't take a lot of time. This is your art society and your exhibition so let's make it happen.
We are planning an inaugural meeting for one evening either the 23rd, 24th, 26th or 27th March.
Please can you email me Larry Turner laurencepturner@gmail.com to let me know which evening is most suitable for you.
The exhibition can not go ahead if there are insufficient people to help.
Many Thanks
Larry Turner
Exhibition Coordinator
Ludlow Art Society.

FOR MARCH the formal, LAS-convened social is cancelled (Normally it would be: 18th of every month - The LAS Social. Blue Boar, Ludlow, 8pm)
Dear all,
PLEASE NOTE we expect that THIS EVENT, in its formal format, will be cancelled due to health reasons.
PLEASE NOTE we expect that THIS EVENT, in its formal format, will be cancelled due to health reasons.
Please note that any members are, of course free to attend any venues
they wish and enjoy discussing art or anything else they wish to, unless otherwise restricted or socially controlled. It is
simply that LAS is not formally convening or hosting such an event this month.
Future formal LAS Socials will be reviewed as the situation develops, changes, and resolves.
Thank you for your patience.
Stay safe, and I hope your time includes as much Art as you wish.
best,
Matt

The Blue Pearl Research Project - Art And Wellbeing
My
name is Frances Clarke I am a visual artist of 20 years conducting an
ongoing research project that aims to establish science based
evidence to evaluate the impact that visual art has on the physical
and psycho emotional well-being of people.
I
would like to extend this invitation to members of the LAS for
participation in the research. There are 30 places available. If you
would like to participate please send me your name and email address–
details below. I will then sent you a registration form and we can
book you in. The research will take place between March the 16th
and March 27th.
The
research will take place in my studio in Ludlow and will last for
approximately one hour. You will be asked to select and observe a
painting and a simple scientific evaluation will be conducted before
and after viewing that painting. Some personal data from you such as
your age and contact details will be collected and stored in
compliance with the GDPR. You will be asked to complete a feedback
form at the end of the session. Each person will be given a
reference number which will be used for any future presentations,

LAS Socials and some Whats-On communications
Hello, members of LAS, art lovers and friends,
The Art Society has many projects for 2020. Exhibitions and events are getting organised, for us all to participate, exhibit, or just enjoy and bring people along.
The Art Society has many projects for 2020. Exhibitions and events are getting organised, for us all to participate, exhibit, or just enjoy and bring people along.
There are LAS socials every 18th of the month in the Blue Boar, Ludlow. The January Social was fun, lots to talk about, and cosy.
There will be reminders a few days before each LAS Social, here in the blog, and by email to members. Bring along non-member friends too if you like - the Society is open to anyone interested, and artists joining LAS.
The Socials are also 'Events' on Facebook, to fit FB users' calendars. Search for Ludlow Art Society. You can click "Interested" or "Going" and you will get a reminder when it's coming up, or you can check your FB calendar. And share it with arts friends. https://www.facebook.com/ludlowartsociety/
https://www.facebook.com/events/393303684837654/?event_time_id=393303718170984
If you are outside Ludlow, car travel may not suit a pub social. If there are other members in your town, maybe organise a local LAS Social. Tell us and we'll publicise it so more people can come along.
If members would like to share info about an event, an exhibition you are in, get feedback about art pieces you are working on, or discuss techniques and arts interests, you can do so by posting to the Ludlow Art Society Facebook page. Some events could be picked up, posted on the blog, and then email-circulated to LAS members.
The Ludlow Art Society has been an artists' community since 1946. Thank you for being part of its growth and activities and breath.
