R. S. Thomas and M. E. Eldridge Society
Description
The Society welcomes new members to join in to honour the the convergence of the creative lives of the poet RS Thomas and his wife, the artist ME Eldridge. For too long, their masterful contributions to literature and art have lacked the attention that a Society can help them regain.
To bring Thomas and Eldridge out of the shadows, and illuminate their merits the Society will:
- Gather people who appreciate the works of RS Thomas and ME Eldridge, the musical compositions, sites, and artefacts associated with them.
- Design literary, art, and music festivals related to Thomas’s poems and Eldridge’s paintings.
- Publish new material dealing with the writings of Thomas and the art of Eldridge, and promote items already published.
- Organize meetings where the work of Thomas and Eldridge can be studied and discussed.
