On National Poetry Day join the fabulous John Hegley - one of the one of the country's most innovative comic poets - for a FREE lunchtime workshop on the theme of ‘counting’.

What counts in your  life? 

And what hasn't counted when it should?

Possible questions to be considered in this easy-going writing and drawing workshop.

All materials provided, including biscuits

And accompanying mandolin playing by John Hegley

At the end of the workshop there will be an optional charity collection for Medecins Sans Frontieres 

This workshop takes place in the beautiful Museum for Life Sciences that brings together historic biological and pharmaceutical collections from the constituent colleges that make up the modern College.

Specimens date from the early 19th century to the present and include skeletal material, fluid-preserved items, taxidermy, dried material, fossils and fossil casts, as well as a herbarium of plant material. The material has been collected mainly for teaching and research over the history of the college.
