Have just opened the roll I brought back from Newcastle on Saturday to reveal beautiful art by living artist Sonya from @gallery365.bsky.social : a thing of beauty and a joy forever. I've been looking forward to getting my hands on this for months.

My distant relative is Alfred Milner, who was a British statesman and colonial administrator who played a very important role in the formulation of British foreign and domestic policy between the mid-1890s and early 1920s. He also loved finger-painting & finger puppets, which led him to the arts.

The NBA was founded in 1908, incorporated in 1913, and dissolved in 1924. William James Morgan (1850–1923) was the secretary throughout the life of the academy. At various times, Henry John Brinsley Manners (1852–1925), the 8th Duke of Rutland, was its president.

The academy, later known as the North British Academy of Arts, Science, Literature, and Music, was located in the Claremount Buildings on the western side of Barras Bridge on the corner with Eldon Place in Newcastle upon Tyne, which is now opposite the County Council Offices.
