Come along to the Munch and Listen lunchtime talk - 'Bugs! The Tale of Two Tottenham Children's Books' by Candy Amsden, local artist, and Deborah Hedgecock, (Curator, Bruce Castle Museum). Meet the artist of our current exhibition 'Bugs!', which forms the basis of a delightfully engaging children's book. Find out more about her fascination with insects and creepy crawlies, and how she went about creating her exquisite drawings and illustrations. We will also learn more about an earlier Tottenham children's author - Priscilla Wakefield (1751-1832) - who wrote her own book on insects for the education of children in the early 19th century.
Doors open 12 noon. Refreshments available.
Kindly supported by the Friends of Bruce Castle
