What a wonderful idea! I’ll definitely share this around campus and perform aloud on the banks of the river Ouse on my way to my desk. Looking forward to seeing how this ballad takes on a life of its own in due course…
I’m particularly proud of co-founding this scheme with Anthony Mandal - so please help @BARS_official in their ongoing commitment by circulating their message widely! And while you’re at it, check out the society’s other amazing bursaries. Great work, Gerry and co!
Officially started my student placement at the magnificent @HarewoodHouse ! I’ll be working with the wonderful collections team and a few other @CECSYork pals to help them curate the upcoming Austen & Turner exhibition. Not a bad spot to work!
