Wantage Branch Annual Lunch with after lunch Q&A session with sculptor Martin Jennings.

19th November 2023 | 11:30 am - 4:30 pm
£30

Martin Jennings (who made the JB statue at St Pancras, the JB bust at The Downland Museum,Wantage and the Philip Larkin statue at Hull Paragon Station) is dropping in after lunch for a Q & A session. Of course Martin has also designed the new Royal stamps and the design of the 50p coin depicting King Charles III, so this event promises to be fascinating.

We hope to keep the cost to £30 to include 3 courses, coffee; Prosecco or similar on arrival and wine and soft drinks with the meal. We have a professional caterer who has done the lunch for the past two years and Snells Hall with some dressing up rises to the occasion.
