Library Talks l “Three Nicholson Women” (Edie and daughters Anne and Liza) with Tim Newman

Our next Library talk will be with Tim Newman, as he discusses “Three Nicholson Women (Edie and daughters Anne and Liza)”. This will take place in the Reading Room from 2pm-3pm on Wednesday 12th November.

Focusing particularly on Anne (Stuart-Wortley) and her artwork, this talk aims to bring out from the sidelines three less well known members of the extended Nicholson family. It is based on Tim’s fortuitous meeting with Liza in the summer of 1975, and their friendship and adventures from then on which led to his friendship with Anne until her death in 2005.

This very personal and anecdotal presentation weaves together Tim’s friendships with both daughters, each of whom had connections to the far west of Cornwall. Anne attended several painting holidays with Charles Breaker, whilst Liza made regular visits to stay with Tim in and around Penzance.

Tickets are allocated by a ballot system.
