SUMMARY:Buy a Brick: Help build the future for Gainsborough’s House
DESCRIPTION:Buy A Brick For Our New Galleries and Crinkle-Crankle Wall\nGainsborough’s House is undertaking a major capital project to establish a national centre for Gainsborough so more people can enjoy the special setting of the artist’s childhood home and garden. The project will double the size of the museum and refurbish and re-display the historic buildings to show more of Gainsborough’s art and to sustain and protect the museum for future generations. \nWith your support\, we will use traditional handmade clay bricks from a local maker which will offer a stunning addition to Sudbury’s conservation area. The new wing will house three exhibition spaces and a creative learning studio with views over the Suffolk countryside. A distinctive crinkle-crankle wall will provide an attractive boundary for the garden\, with its giant 400-year-old Mulberry tree\, alive when Gainsborough was a boy. \nBy sponsoring a brick for £20 you will help to make this possible. The project will use thousands of bricks\, so every sponsor will help and everyone who buys a brick will be thanked in a special commemorative book. \n“Sponsoring bricks is a great way to get involved. These bricks are a local material\, so we are supporting Suffolk industry as well helping to build a beautiful feature for the site. Do join in and perhaps sponsor a brick for each member of your family\,” \nMark Bills\, Director\, Gainsborough’s House. \nHow You Can Get Involved\nIf you would like to buy a brick/s\, or perhaps give one for each member of your family or for friends\, please email mail@gainsborough.org or call 01787 372958 \nDOWNLOAD OUR BUY A BRICK LEAFLET (PDF) \nor buy a brick online at JUST GIVING \nThank you for your support.

SUMMARY:The Pre-Raphaelite Dream
DESCRIPTION:2 and 9 February 2018\n10.30am – 12.30pm \nThis course celebrates the art\, ideas\, and lives of Dante Gabriel Rossetti\, John Everett Millais\, William Holman Hunt and other artists associated with the Pre-Raphaelite Brotherhood. Young\, rebellious and idealistic\, the Pre-Raphaelite Brotherhood turned their backs on the dull conventions and mawkish sentimentality of Victorian art and championed the traditions of medieval painting\, the realistic depiction of nature\, and subjects portraying poetry\, modern life\, and romantic love. Their work revolutionised the way that painters’ viewed the world\, while their unconventional relationships and lifestyles pre-figured modern ideas about artists as Bohemians living outside the norms of respectable society. The course explores the history of the Movement from its origins in the 1840s to its later impact on artists like Edward Burne-Jones and also examines the role of women as models and fellow-artists. \nCoffee and pastries included\n£30 for two lectures \nTo Book: call 01787 372958 or\nmail@gainsborough.org
