'Art for Love's Sake'
the extraordinary story of the Davies sisters in Wales

7pm in the Reardon Smith Lecture Theatre,
followed by dinner in the Grand Hall of the National Museum Cardiff


The Friends of Amgueddfa Cymru-National Museum Wales are delighted to welcome the return of Trevor Fishlock who some years ago was the guest speaker at our occasional evening lecture/recital series. Trevor will give his talk in the Reardon Smith Lecture Theatre, National Museum Cardiff, on Friday 22 May 2015 at 7.00 pm.

Trevor is so well known as hardly to call for any introduction, being a prolific author and broadcaster, several TV series such as the widely acclaimed ‘Fishlock’s Wales’ testifying to his reputation. As a journalist, Trevor was a foreign correspondent at the Daily Telegraph and latterly at The Times.

Linking with his talk, Trevor’s most recent book ‘A Gift of Sunlight – the Fortune and Quest of the Davies Sisters of Llandinam’ recounts the story of the sisters, famed for their bequests of the Impressionist and other paintings that form the core of the world-class collection held by Amgueddfa Cymru.

Tickets for this special occasion are available at a cost of £36 to include the recital and the ensuing dinner with wine included.

The event is open to non-members of the Friends who may wish to come and bookings for tables of 8 or 10 places are welcome. Dress: lounge suits for gentlemen. Free parking will be available in the car park at the rear of the Museum.
