FoDL: Transforming the Imperial War Museum - Monday 21 July

Don't forget the next talk from the Friends of the Durning Library, on Monday 21 July at the usual time of 6.45 for 7.15pm.  Given that the Imperial War Museum is only re-opening this weekend, this is a really hot topic.

Transforming the Imperial War Museum
Two days after the reopening of IWM London with a new atrium designed by Foster + Partners, cafés, shops and exhibitions, historian James Taylor will join us to discuss the new and permanent First World War Galleries.  These have taken over four years to produce and will display over 1,300 objects, including a recreated trench. 

6.45 for 7.15pm at the Durning Library
Light refreshments. Everyone welcome. No admission charge, but a £2 donation towards costs is invited.
