About this event

Not enough hours in the day? We’re open late on the last Thursday of every month, so you can visit the reading room, museum galleries, shop, cafe and garden until 9pm. There are usually additional activities taking place on the evening to add to your visit.

29 November 2018:
Christmas Shopping Evening

It’s the most wonderful time of the year… our annual shopping evening just in time for Christmas! Visit between 5pm and 9pm and enjoy a glass of mulled wine with a mince pie (donations welcome!) Relax and listen to Christmas carols by the University Choir, and take advantage of 10% off in the shop.
