Clay and thread\, paint and colour\, lens and screen\, ink and object each hold their own language. Together\, they create a conversation about process\, experiment\, and the shifting roles they inhabit as educators and artists. \n\n\n\nThe works on display emerge from the overlap of classroom and studio\, from the restless space between guiding others and pursuing individual investigations. They are presented not as finished answers but as open propositions\, fragments of dialogue\, and invitations to look closer. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nTickets\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nPlease see important booking information below. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nBooking information\n\n\n\nTicket prices: \n\n\n\nFree entry \n\n\n\nDates & times: \n\n\n\nWednesday 11 to Friday 27 March 2026 at 7.30pm \n\n\n\nExhibition Opening: \n\n\n\nThursday 12 March 5.00pm to 7.00pm \n\n\n\nPlease join in for drinks to celebrate the opening of this exhibition \n\n\n\nFree event / no booking required \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nAbout The North Wall Arts Centre\n\n\n\n\n \n \n \n \n\n\n\nThe North Wall Arts Centre is an an award-winning theatre\, gallery and performing arts centre located in Summertown\, North Oxford.

Over four days they built on their technical and creative skills and discovered the subjects they love to photograph. \n\n\n\nDuring the October half-term\, they immersed themselves in several exhibitions of photography and learnt so much about how to curate their own exhibition. \n\n\n\nThe group are looking forward to one more day of planning in February before they install their group exhibition in the Spring. Come along and meet our latest cohort of wonderful photographers; they will be staffing the gallery during the show. \n\n\n\nThis exhibition takes place at Magdalen Road Studios. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nTickets\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nPlease see important booking information below. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nBooking information\n\n\n\nTicket prices: \n\n\n\nFree entry \n\n\n\nDates & times: \n\n\n\nSaturday 28 March to Thursday 02 April 2026 at 11.00am \n\n\n\nRunning time: \n\n\n\n4 hours \n\n\n\nLocation: \n\n\n\nMagdalen Road Studios URL:https://theoxfordmagazine.com/event/camera-club-spring-2026-exhibition/ LOCATION:The North Wall Arts Centre\, South Parade\, Oxford\, OX2 7JN CATEGORIES:Exhibitions ATTACH;FMTTYPE=image/jpeg:https://theoxfordmagazine.com/wp-content/uploads/Camera-Club-Spring-2026-Exhibition.webp GEO:51.7781313;-1.2676696 X-APPLE-STRUCTURED-LOCATION;VALUE=URI;X-ADDRESS=The North Wall Arts Centre South Parade Oxford OX2 7JN;X-APPLE-RADIUS=500;X-TITLE=South Parade:geo:-1.2676696,51.7781313 END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;TZID=Europe/London:20260328T000000 DTEND;TZID=Europe/London:20260406T235959 DTSTAMP:20260531T150024 CREATED:20240310T142213Z LAST-MODIFIED:20260327T013110Z UID:10010424-1774656000-1775519999@theoxfordmagazine.com SUMMARY:Easter Adventures at Waddesdon Manor DESCRIPTION:Easter Adventures at Waddesdon Manor\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nAbout Easter Adventures at Waddesdon Manor\n\n\n\nVisit Waddesdon Manor this Easter for a fun-filled Easter adventure sure to surprise and delight. \n\n\n\nEaster Adventures Trail \n\n\n\nThis Easter the Waddesdon Manor trail is jam-packed with lots of fun games and creative activities.

S. Bach’s St. Matthew Passion was completed in 1727 and has been widely recognized\, to this day\, as the greatest sacred choral work of all time. It stands as such a towering musical edifice that it casts a shadow on the entire passion oratorio genre until at least the time of Penderecki and Part in the late 20th century. \n\n\n\nCertainly\, Bach’s inventive harmony\, dense counterpoint and dramatic use of tone colour are striking throughout. Due to the nature of this work as a vehicle for telling the story of Jesus Christ’s crucifixion\, this performance will be sung in English. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nTickets\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nPlease see important booking information below. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nBooking information\n\n\n\nTicket prices: \n\n\n\nFrom £20.00 – £25.00 \n\n\n\nA fee of £1.50 per transaction applies to bookings for this event across all channels – website\, phone and in-person bookings at the Box Office.
