Rochdale Antique Society<br />
Wednesday 8th <strong>May</strong> <strong>2019</strong> at 7.30pm, following a<br />
short AGM, Rochdale Antiques Society will welcome<br />
Pat Osborne, a mixed media artist from Hebden<br />
Bridge who will tell us what LS Lowry was really like<br />
from her own artist’s perspective.<br />
LS Lowry (1887-1975) studied art at night school<br />
whilst working as a rent collector. His work is<br />
associated with “matchstick men”, but he also painted<br />
landscapes, portraits and surreal images. A very<br />
private man he turned down honours on 5 occasions<br />
and was often seen as an enigma.<br />
This is the last of this year’s season. We will have a<br />
short break until September and announce details of<br />
future meetings in Streetwise.<br />
Annual membership £27.50.<br />
