Details of talks given by Fiona Rose
Thank you for your interest in my range of talks. I am happy to travel further afield, if requested, than the East of England where I am based.
I am an accredited lecturer with The Arts Society (formerly known as NADFAS) and have been giving talks around the country since 2010. As well as Arts Society groups I have given talks for many WI and U3A groups, history, art, antiques and garden clubs, The National Trust , The William Morris Society and the Arts & Crafts Movement in Surrey association.
I give talks about subjects I feel passionately about with a special interest in William Morris, his circle and the Arts & Crafts Movement. My aim is to include the human story behind the artistic endeavours of my lecture subjects.
My lectures are usually 1 hour in length but can be adapted and are copiously illustrated with photographs via PowerPoint.
After fifteen years working for public health charities and the NHS, in 2009 I followed my long held dream and founded a home interiors business which I very much enjoy running.
I am a member of the Museum Collections committee for The William Morris Society where I served as a Trustee for four years. I am also a contributor to the Society’s Magazine and Journal of William Morris Studies. I greatly enjoy volunteering as a House Guide with Arts & Crafts Movement gem the David Parr House in Cambridge.
