Thursday 26th March, 2026   - LET's TALK

Our speaker at this month's LET's TALK in March, is  David Innes-Wilkin.  David is a retired architect who graduated from the University of Liverpool and early on, opened an architectural practice in Bristol. He has also qualified as a town planner and interior designer.

He lives in the heart of Bristol and likes to travel and of course, brings this latter lifelong travel interest to us, in his talk. 

It's a very interesting and glamorous period, in Italy in the 18th century, to think and dream about.

I'm looking forward to it !! 👍

Bristol Community Tango Orchestra

About this event:

This event is all about a TANGO performance at Bristol 1904 Arts where you will experience tango musically and through dance, at its very best - a feast of latin culture and rich traditions to be enjoyed.

Bristol Community Tango Orchestra are one part of the non-profit Creative Caminito where they are building inclusive new tango music education & performance communities through innovative projects throughout the UK, developing musicianship, creativity, community, and intercultural understanding. They aim to enrich cultural opportunities in the UK, and develop multiple collaborations between different cultures.

The Community Tango Orchestra are currently running 4 orchestras in London, Bristol, the New Forest and Leeds with more in the pipeline ...

But besides the development of tango skills they look to perform their music and dance spectacular at concerts, which is what brings them to Bristol 1904 Arts. We will be laying down a dance floor area in our performance hall especially for the purpose. It's going to be a stunning experience musically, vocally and dance-wise.

So we do urge you to attend this spectacular!

Thursday 28th May, 2026   - LET's TALK

Our speaker at the May LET'S TALK is Leslie Shutt, who has been a Green Feather (General) Member since 2014. Les is a retired consultant anaesthatist and previously presented a LET'S TALK on the subject of pain and pain management a few years ago. He was presented with the Humphry Davy Award in 2003 for "Important recent discovery in chemistry". As a medical man, Les has been interested in the history of medicine and here he highlights the significance of the Budd Family and their historical contribution to medical practice in the South West of England.

This promises to be another amazing presentation on a little-known subject and a worthy contribution to our on-going LET'S TALK series.

No bookings are required for this talk - just turn up and pay at the bar area on arrival. Guests and non-members are welcome!

A must-see!!  👍
