To mark the Autumn Equinox and this exciting new beginning as Manchester Museum has recently reopened its doors to the public following a £15m transformation, Professor of Public History, David Olusoga OBE, will deliver a lecture addressing the dilemma facing museums in the 21st Century.

This event is part of Creative Manchester’s ‘Solstice and Equinox series’, a series of events which brings innovative creative artists to The University of Manchester’s four Cultural Institutions. Each of its unique cultural institutions – the Whitworth, the John Rylands Research Institute and Library, Manchester Museum and Jodrell Bank Discovery Centre – focus on building civic, national and international partnerships to advance the social, environmental and individual well-being of our communities.

SOLD OUT. The event is FREE and booking is with Creative Manchester via Eventbrite. You can register to attend in person or to watch via live stream.

The event will be live-streamed, recorded and made accessible shortly afterwards.
