Part of the Furniture: Curators’ Talk
Go behind the scenes of our ‘Part of the Furniture’ exhibition with curators Mark Westgarth, Rachel Eckersley and Rhiannon Lawrence-Francis.
This curators’ talk is an opportunity to hear a discussion about the development and staging of our current exhibition ‘Part of the Furniture: The Library of John Bedford’. You will also be able to hear about John Bedford’s extraordinary library and how it was gifted to the University of Leeds.
You are invited to arrive at 1.00pm to see the layout and themes of the exhibition ahead of the talk, which begins at 1.15pm. A Q&A with the curators follows the talk at 1.45pm, where you can ask questions about the exhibition and the items on display. Booking essential.
