Thu 26 Sep 2024 - What do we do about AI?

7:30pm

Tucked away on Christine Widdall’s website is an article describing her first forays into creative AI work that she keeps entirely separate from her photography.

Celebrated for her landscapes, townscapes and steam punks, and with a wicked sense of humour, she’s the ideal person to ask questions about AI.

Thu 19 Sep 2024 - Extraordinary Everyday Photography

7:30pm

Lynda Golightly lost her voice last time she was due to give a talk, which was our loss.

While her travel photography captures special places around the world, Lynda will show work that takes inspiration from the mundane. It will be far from that.
