And as a continuation of the series of internment-related events held in September in partnership with Jewish Renaissance magazine, we are pleased to announce the following talks:
On Thursday 7 October at 6pm, gallerist Jane England will talk about the larger-than-life figure of artist and impressario Jack Bilbo, who presided over cultural activities in Onchan Camp; and at 8pm on the same day, Jacquie Richardson will talk about her art historian father Klaus Hinrichsen, chronicler of the rich cultural life of Hutchinson Camp, both located in Douglas on the Isle of Man. She will be joined by Simon Parkin, author of a forthcoming book, The Island of Extraordinary Captives.
Booking details for both events to follow.
