Poetic Obituaries: Before establishing Salon Arts,

Miss [Bridget] Monahan helped found the St Swithun's Dramatic Society.

For many years she produced pageants and plays for St Stephen's Church, she taught violin and cello at the former Sacred Heart College for Boys in Droitwich, gave music lessons at Sunnyside School, published poetry, and was an ardant supporter of both Worcester's Swan Theatre and the Elgar Society.

All of her concerts raised money for charity, often the Musicians Benevolence Fund.

from Worcester News: Woman who gave her life to the arts dies at 99
