SUMMARY:The Couldrey Painting and Poetry Course\, led by Artist-Teacher Helen Edwards
DESCRIPTION:This six-week course inspired by Oswald Couldrey – arguably Abingdon’s most famous artist and poet of the 20th century – offers a journey through drawing\, poetry\, photography and contemporary painting techniques. \n\nRunning every Friday from 20 February to 27 March\, 10am to 12pm in the Museum Kempster Room\, there are 10 places available for this course.\nBooking is essential\, a place costs £180 which includes materials.\nContact the Museum reception to book and make payment – 01235 523703\nor email abingdon.museum@abingdon.gov.uk. \n\nInitially\, Helen will guide you through Couldrey’s exhibition which is on display at Abingdon Museum for the first three months of 2026. Together you will then go on to further study and critique his paintings and poems in a session of discussion and discovery. Equipped with a new-found knowledge of Couldrey’s style and his creative techniques it will then be your turn to take to the streets of Abingdon. In an homage to the artist – who influences Helen’s own colour palette and style of composition – you will study the historic town’s architecture and meandering streets\, and begin the process of creating your own responses. Using his poems to help your aesthetic response\, you will photograph\, draw and paint the contemporary town through a Couldrey-style lens.\nThis will help to develop your understanding of perspective through drawing\, your composition skills and how colour pallets influence the artist. You will then be working with contemporary painting techniques that will further enhance your skills and build on the range and style of media you use in your art.\nThe course will culminate in writing your own poems inspired by your artwork and the town of Abingdon. \n*Good cameras are not necessary\, a phone camera will be fine. \nHelen J S Edwards studied BA Fine Art and later completed an MA in Artist-Teacher Practice at Oxford Brookes University.

SUMMARY:Exhibition: Objects of Significance by Sarah Frodsham
DESCRIPTION:Step into a space where the familiar holds unexpected depth. Objects of Significance invites you to explore the hidden meanings behind everyday items through a curated collection of single objects\, each contributed by a local resident. From worn-out clothes to cherished heirlooms\, these items reveal emotional layers and personal histories that transcend their ordinary appearance. Each object tells a unique story offering a glimpse into the lives of those who call Abingdon home. Visitors are encouraged to reflect on a singular object from their own lives and the emotions it evokes. By spotlighting these intimate narratives\, the exhibition celebrates the richness of lived experience and the quiet power of the seemingly ordinary.

SUMMARY:Exhibition - Abingdon 1945
DESCRIPTION:2025 marks the 80th anniversary of the end of World War 2\, and our exhibition looks back at Abingdon in war and peace in 1945. Learn how the war impacted the lives of local people through food shortages\, the threat of air raids\, war work in the industries\, and the influx of evacuees and armed forces personnel. Take a closer look at the roles of women and how they experienced the war and the post-war period. The exhibition also looks at the changes the peace brought\, how people celebrated VE and VJ Day\, what happened when the soldiers returned home\, and how a decision taken in 1945 changed the face of the town with the coming of the ‘Atomics’. \nFrom 4th October to 23rd December 2025\n \n \nPlease join us for the final talk of the Museum’s WWII history series ‘1945 -The End of the Third Reich’ presented by BBC Radio Nottingham’s History Advisor Gareth Howell .\n \nPlease book your tickets at the Museum Reception\nor online at https://www.ticketsource.co.uk/abingdon-museum  \nFriday 7th November at 7pm.\nLocation: The Roysse Room\, Bridge Street\, Abingdon.
