About your speaker
Elaine Hansen has a Master’s degree in Education and taught for twenty-seven years. She now splits her year between Italy and Scotland. After taking early retirement she was free to pursue her passion, Art History, which she studied at the universities of Glasgow and Strathclyde. She became a guide at Kelvingrove Art Gallery, Glasgow in 2009 and gives lectures to her fellow guides.
In Italy Elaine researches her Italian lectures and in Glasgow attends seminars relating to her areas of expertise in Scottish Art.
In 2018 she was made an accredited lecturer for The Arts Society and since then has been in demand for lectures delivered in the UK, in Europe and on cruises in both Italy and Scotland.
During the Covid 19 crisis she registered with the Arts Society as a Zoom lecturer so is now able to deliver lectures without limits – or indeed travelling expenses!
