SUMMARY:The World of Pearls
DESCRIPTION:The allure of pearls has been documented from ancient times and there is evidence of the use of pearls in the Arabian Gulf region dating back to 4000BC. In ancient Rome\, according to legend\, Venus herself was born of the sea like a pearl. The Romans thought pearls were formed from the teardrops of the gods\, or perhaps as a result of clams capturing dewdrops in the moonlight. This talk looks at the amazing variety of types of pearls\, from those produced by oysters to marine snails\, how they are found and some of the most famous pearls in the world\, including those that belonged to Mary Queen of Scots. \nDates and Locations \nTuesday 8 September 2026 Launceston (TAS) \nFriday 11 September​ 2026 Brisbane River (QLD) \nThursday 17 September 2026 Brisbane (QLD) \n​Sunday 20 September 2026 Sunshine Coast (QLD) \nWednesday 23 September 2026 Toowoomba (QLD) \nSaturday 26 September 2026 Rockhampton (QLD) \nClick on your preferred location above for more details and to book tickets.

SUMMARY:The Dutch Golden Age in Six Paintings
DESCRIPTION:The 17th century in the Netherlands\, referred to as the Dutch Golden Age\, was the time of Rembrandt and Vermeer\, of extraordinary riches and incredible progress. There may be no other country in which in the brief span of a hundred years so many paintings were executed. It would be hard to find a museum in the world not housing at least one painting from the Dutch Golden Age. This talk will use six paintings to introduce how the arts flourished in the tiny republic during this period\, and to introduce the Dutch\, their cities\, landscapes\, society\, beliefs and artistic genres. \nDates and Locations \nSunday 6 September 2026 Cairns (QLD) \nThursday 10 September 2026 Melbourne (VIC) \nTuesday 15 September 2026 Canberra (ACT) \nTuesday 29 September 2026 Margaret River (WA) \nClick on your preferred location above for more details and to book tickets.
