About Simon Evers

I am a retired headmaster. I have always had an interest in art and art history, in particular British art.

In 2018 I did an online course in art history with the Art Institute and graduated with distinction.

I belong to a u3a Art Appreciation group and in 2021 started giving talks to the group, which encouraged me to give talks on British art to a wider audience.
