Edo Pop Lady Lever. Wednesday May 4th
Kunichika: Japanese Prints
Lady Lever Art Gallery
This stunning new exhibition of prints by Toyohara Kunichika (1843-1900) is an exciting follow up of the gallery’s 2017 popular exhibition Edo-Pop.
I can’t believe it was that long ago that we enjoyed the first showing of this brilliant art form.

Theatre Group
The Theatre Group is looking to arrange a short trip to London this year, maybe June or September. It will include a tour of the Shakespearean iconic open air Globe Theatre as well as a tour called ‘Legal London Tour’, which is a guided tour of the Royal Courts of Justice and a wander through the secret alleys and courtyards. Along with a talk on the history of the Old Bailey.
We would also have some free time to do what you chose in London or you may like to make suggestions to us such as a west end show or similar.
Can you let us know if you would be interested in this 2 night trip to London and if there is enough interest we will ask Airdale Tours to arrange a price for us?

T+S – Stone age Sefton
28 members attended the Wednesday afternoon meeting for a talk by Molly Toal, the Communications and Engagement Officer of the Lunt Meadows Nature Reserve, part of the Wildlife Trust for Lancashire, Manchester and North Merseyside.
A fascinating story and laptop presentation of the geography, history and archaeology of the Lunt Meadows ‘dig’ gave us a vivid insight into our local prehistory back over 9000 years.
Later this year we will be taking a guided tour of the ‘dig’ so watch this space for news. The presentation was ‘free’. A donation of £50 has been made.
Our next meeting is Feb 9th with Colin discussing computer security.
