The Lymington Society is pleased to announce its new Social Programme of events for members starting in September 2021 and running through to the Summer Garden Party in June 2022. Following a year of meetings of on Zoom it’s a great pleasure to be able to re-commence actual physical events in person.
The first of these events is a very special event at St Barbe Museum where the Society is proud to be able to arrange for LymSoc Members to have a first look at the amazing new St Barbe exhibition entitled: Unsettling Landscapes: The Art of The Eerie. See here for details
St Barbe describe the exhibition as follows “An exhibition exploring eerie representations of rural landscapes from the aftermath of the First World War to the present. In his essay for the catalogue Robert Macfarlane explains that the eerie ‘involves that form of fear which is felt first as unease then as dread, and it tends to be incited by glimpses and tremors rather than outright attack. Horror specialises in confrontation and aggression; the eerie in intimation and intimidation.”
The Private View which costs £5.00 to include refreshments, starts at 6.00 pm and takes place at St Barbe Museum and Art Gallery at 6.00 pm on Tuesday the 28th of September. Tickets are available on the door or on Eventbrite. Click Here to buy tickets on Eventbrite
