Step into the extraordinary world of L.S. Lowry, one of Britain’s most iconic and instantly recognisable artists. This exclusive seminar invites you to explore the life, work, and legacy of the man behind the famous matchstick figures - an artist who transformed everyday industrial life into timeless works of art.

Hosted by gallery manager Amy, this illustrated seminar will take you on a journey through Lowry’s fascinating story, from his early life and influences to his rise as a celebrated figure in British and international art.

Discover the man behind the paintings:

🎨 L.S. Lowry - a quietly complex artist whose depictions of factories, streets, and ordinary people captured the soul of industrial Britain. Once overlooked, Lowry is now recognised as one of the most important British artists of the 20th century, with works held in major collections around the world.

• Why his art continues to resonate decades after his death
