WELCOME For more than 130 years Broadway has had a close connection with prominent figures in the arts. The Broadway Arts Festival was founded in 2010; it is a registered charity and its inspiration was the world-renowned Broadway Colony of artists who turned the then quiet village into a focal point for painters, musicians and writers amongst whom were John Singer Sargent, Edward Elgar and Henry James. Whilst celebrating this important historical link, the festival places strong emphasis on the present, as the varied and appealing events shown in this programme demonstrate.

We also very much look to the future by encouraging young people to take an interest in the arts and by making

financial grants to students. The Festival, which is biennial, has continued to grow in its strength and importance and is now attracting contributions from leading performers and authorities in the arts. For instance, as you will see, this year we are fortunate to have as speakers John Julius, Lord Norwich and our patron, Sir Roy Strong in a varied programme of music, talks, painting and photographic exhibitions, drama and workshops.

Broadway Arts Festival is run entirely by volunteers and the Trustees are deeply grateful to the Management Committee which, under the leadership of Helen Clegg, has put it all together. It is the intention of the Trustees and the Management Committee to provide a range of stimulating, rewarding and, above all, enjoyable events which, I hope, the following pages will demonstrate.

So, welcome to the fourth Broadway Arts Festival.

Martin Wilson QC Chairman of the Trustees of Broadway Arts Festival

Patrick Lichfield Photographs This exhibition of over 100 photographs from the Lichfield archive includes many of Patrick Lichfield’s famous images such as Mick and Bianca Jagger’s wedding and Royal, fashion, portraiture, calendar and advertising photographs. A number of iconic shots will be featured as well as some that have rarely been seen.

Patrick Lichfield, as he liked to be known professionally, photographed every Royal Family in Europe and many of the world’s most beautiful women. In July 1981 he was appointed official photographer at the wedding of his cousin, The Prince of Wales, and Lady Diana Spencer and the resulting photographs, refreshingly informal, continue to be widely published to this day. Exhibitions of his work were held on a global basis and in 2003 the National Portrait Gallery dedicated a retrospective exhibition to the first twenty years of his work.

Richard Ormond ‘Sargent in Broadway’

‘Come & Sing! Choral Workshop’ for Amateur Singers

Lecture by Sir Roy Strong ‘Shakespeare’s Gardens

Richard Ormond CBE is Art Historical Advisor to the Festival.

Formerly Director of the National Maritime Museum and Deputy Director of the National Portrait Gallery, he is the grandson of Violet Sargent Ormond, the sister of John Singer Sargent. She was the subject of many of Sargent’s paintings and Richard Ormond has written several books about Sargent and other painters.

Do you enjoy singing? Come and join our ad hoc chorus for an entertaining and joyful day’s singing with others, getting to grips with a range of well-loved choral pieces from Vivaldi to Elgar, via Mozart and Sullivan and more!

In the quarter-centenary year of Shakespeare’s death Sir Roy Strong explores the quest for his garden at New Place Stratford-upon-Avon.

The quest involves a bizarre list of characters from the novelist Marie Corelli to E.F. Benson’s Lucia, from Edward VII’s mistress, Daisy, Countess of Warwick, to the historian of Hampton Court, Ernest Law. Through it garden history and re-creation were born.

Venue: Lifford Hall Tickets: £15 FREE to Benefactors and Friends

The workshop price includes scores, practice CDs and tea-break refreshments.

‘You Thought You Couldn’t! - Drawing for the Terrified’ with Niki Crew

Talk: ‘40 Years Watching Paint Dry’ with Geoff Tristram

Adrian Barlow: ‘Fear & Loathing in John Betjeman’

This class is designed for total beginners, to overcome the fear of drawing and to teach some of the basic techniques which can help to build confidence and the enthusiasm to continue. Niki Crew has been convincing children they can draw for 11 years at Chipping Campden School and previously drawing and printmaking at art colleges across the UK.

This inspirational and often hilarious talk charts Geoff’s rise from scatterbrained ten-yearold with a 13 colour biro to the scatterbrained fifty-nine-year-old professional artist and occasional comedy writer that he is today.

The presentation shows work done for the likes of Penguin, Embassy World Snooker, the BBC, Trivial Pursuit and Ravensburger Jigsaws, Jeremy Clarkson and Jonathan Ross.

Adrian Barlow is the president of the English Association, series editor of ‘Cambridge Contexts in Literature’ and former Director of Public and Professional Programmes at Cambridge University Institute of Continuing Education. He is an authority on Victorian architecture, ecclesiology and stained glass. He is also very interested in the Great War and cultural memory.

Art Workshop – 2 day: ‘Colour and Light in Pastels’ with Tony Allain PS,PSA

Nicholas Merryweather, Baritone & Joseph Ramadan, Piano

Art Workshop 2-day Oils/ Gouache with Gary Long

Tony will share some of his working methods in this workshop, concentrating on painting land & seascapes that are filled with colour and light. He will explore the use of direct strokes on a textured surface to emphasize ‘brushwork’. He will show how to simplify our approach to achieve exciting impressionistic paintings. Tony is a Member of the Pastel Society and the Pastel Society of America. To include a light lunch with wine - limited to 10.

Schumann’s Dichterliebe, considered by many his best song cycle, is complemented by a selection of English songs in this recital by the distinguished baritone, Nicholas Merryweather, already well-known here from his appearances at Longborough Festival Opera. We mark the 400th anniversary of Shakespeare’s death with settings by Gerald Finzi, a regular visitor to Broadway.

Gary was featured on BBC’s Countryfile which showcased his work alongside Barbara Hepworth, Patrick Heron and Kurt Jackson.

Gary is also a tutor at University College, Falmouth, St Ives School of Painting and the Verrocchio Art Centre in Tuscany.

Jazz with Steve Browning and Wayne Elliot

Art Workshop in Oils: ‘Amongst the Roses!’ with Edward Noott

Recital: Charlie Bennett & Jessica May Piano Duet

Steve’s laid back vocal style together with his dynamic guitar work is complemented by Wayne Elliot’s formidable bass playing with a range of songs from old Delta Blues to B.B. King classics.

“If I had to choose an artist that had most influence on me, it would be Monet. I’ve always loved the way he interprets light, going beyond naturalism and creating a depiction of reality that is both beautiful and personal in its execution”. Edward Noott has regular solo shows in Broadway, London and New York.

A most beautiful, short lunchtime programme of exquisite works for piano duet by Franz Schubert, played in the lovely acoustics of St Michael’s Church, Broadway.

Charlie Bennett and Jessica May are respected and experienced local, professional musicians, both with close ties to the Chipping Campden International Music Festival.

With an on-going programme of recordings and live broadcasts, VOCES8 is heard regularly on the BBC and Classic FM.

Blunderbus Drama Workshop for ages 3 - 11

VOCES8 is now established as one of the most versatile and best-loved singing groups. The ensemble is providing a music workshop for adults who enjoy singing. The session will include warm up tips and techniques and a fully interactive workshop including classical music and some jazz, pop and folk arrangements.

‘I’ve been shooting in London for over 10 years now. I’m lucky enough to have had images in most of the UK magazines and shot for many of the high street fashion houses at some time or another.

I always try to capture movement in my shoots. Cloth and fabric look great when they move, light bouncing from different angles as the model dances and the dress spins randomly.’

The Blunderbus Theatre Company will have sessions for 2 different age ranges: 3- 7 year olds and 7 – 11 year olds. This will be an active ‘doing’ drama workshop, which will allow the children to become characters, be part of a narrative (which they themselves play a part in creating) and will require them to use their imaginations.

These free sessions will be lead by professional actors who will make the experience accessible.

Creating Textures in Watercolour with Deborah Walker R.I.

Lecture by Rebecca Hellen: ‘Sargent’s Painting Practice, CLLR’

Workshop ‘Painting with Words’ – with Sue Mayfield

“My paintings are concerned with landscape, both in broad expanse and in close-up detail and express both the dramatic and subtle ways in which light transforms a subject”. Deborah was elected to membership of the Royal Institute of Painters in Water Colours in 2011 and was awarded the Turner Medal, the Anthony J Lester Art Critic Award and the Escoda Barcelona Award. Ticket includes a light lunch with wine.

Tate Paintings Conservator Rebecca Hellen has been researching the materials and techniques in oil of John Singer Sargent. ‘Carnation, Lily, Lily, Rose’ will be of particular interest in this talk. Having trained at the Courtauld Institute of Art, Rebecca has worked for the Tate’s conservation department since 2002.

This half-day workshop with writer Sue Mayfield will focus on writing for pleasure and relaxation. Taking landscape and colour as starting points, the workshop will help you write playfully and expressively through a combination of guided exercises, quiet space and gentle feedback.

‘Making Marks Using Text and Texture in Print’ Tutor Tricia Torrington

Talk by Quentin Letts ‘Parliamentary Middlers....’

You will make and ink-up monoprint and collagraph plates and print these using a small press.

An irreverent, gossipy, bracing blast against the dullards and drongos who infest our Houses of Parliament by a man who watches them daily from the press gallery: sketchwriter and theatre critic Quentin Letts.

Talk by George Butler War Artist

Portraits with Form with Roger Dellar RI, PS, ROI

John Julius Norwich/Malcolm Rogers in Conversation

George Butler specialises in travel and current affairs. His drawings, done in situ are in pen, ink and watercolour. In August 2012 George walked from Turkey across the border into Syria, where as an unofficial guest of the rebel Free Syrian Army he spent 4 days drawing the civil wardamaged, small and empty town of Azaz. 6 months later he made a similar trip back to Syria to record the stories.

Painting the head using planes of the face where light and shadow catch. Working in a couple of hours from the model, Roger will demonstrate the process and then assist you in your paintings. Roger is a Member of the Royal Institute of Oil Painters, Royal Institute of Watercolour Painters and the Pastel Society and is a highly experienced tutor. Some experience needed Ticket includes a light lunch with wine.

The conversation will touch on John Julius’ distinguished parents - Duff Cooper, 1st Viscount Norwich, politician and diplomat, and Lady Diana Cooper, legendary beauty and socialite - on some of the many fascinating people he has known, places he has travelled, and particularly his love of Venice.

As he looks back over his long and varied life, we hope to learn some of the secrets of his perpetual energy and enthusiasm.

Edward Noott - Oil Springfield House

Rod Ashman lives in Cheltenham and was head of art and design at Pate’s Grammar School where he taught for 40 years.

“I am primarily concerned with the depiction of light in the environment, be it cityscape, landscape or seascape. I am fascinated at how the changing light conditions can transform a scene. Atmosphere is always the starting point; I always try and create a sense of place and of mood. I have found that watercolour is ideally suited to conveying the transient moods”

Edward Noott has regular solo shows in Broadway, London and New York. He is a full member of the Royal Birmingham Society of Artists and the Royal West of England Academy. Oneman exhibitions have been held in Broadway annually since 1993, together with exhibitions throughout the UK and regular solo and mixed exhibitions in New Jersey and Florida.

Rod will give an introduction to mixed media painting and then you will be encouraged to create work on your own in the garden or indoors if wet.

Lecture by John Julius Norwich: ‘Paddy’s World’

Art Demonstration – Sculpture with Judy Boyt MA, FRBS

In 1944 Patrick Leigh-Fermor kidnapped General Kreipe, commanding the German forces in Crete. After the war a succession of books - mostly, but not invariably, about Greece - revealed him as perhaps the greatest travel writer that this country has ever produced. John Julius Norwich knew him well for some fifty years. Patrick Leigh-Fermor is buried in the churchyard in nearby Dumbleton.

Working from life, Judy will sculpt a small terrier using wire and wax. Judy works from the ‘inside out’- creating a sculpture that has presence and a soul, capturing the living essence in the final metal cast. ‘Rebellion’, a twice life size bronze horse commissioned by Standard Life, was initially sited in Trafalgar Square before being placed on top of the East India Offices in the City of London. Ticket includes a light lunch with wine.

F.L.Griggs 11 May—11 September This summer the Ashmolean Museum Broadway is hosting an exhibition celebrating the work of F. L. Griggs (1876 –1938).

Griggs’s contemporary reputation as an etcher was unsurpassed as acknowledged by his election to the Royal Academy in 1931.

Demonstrating an equal mastery of meticulous architectural detail and poetic effects of light and atmosphere, he created images of compelling visionary intensity.
