Join Art on Tour Engagement Officer, Katie Ackrill on this informal walk and talk as she tells you about artworks from Swindon’s collection, which are currently on display at the Civic Offices.
Highlights of the talk will include Claude Francis-Barry’s striking painting of Tower Bridge during the Second World War, Desmond Morris’ vibrant depiction of Diana Doors, and works by significant Swindon-born artists Roy Bizley and Harold Dearden.

It includes a vibrant cross section of works spanning a time frame of 1904 – 2019, and covers a broad range of subject matter and styles.
This free, informal talk will be held at the Civic Offices from 12:30. Please report to reception on arrival.
