I (Jax) have been moving house, so yesterday I was a bit distracted. But that didn't matter - KOST made this!

It's guessing time!
What do you think KOST is calling this potential friend of Snap?

This week, KOST would like to give a big shout out to all the people who've given their time to all of our projects - thank you!

Yesterday Learning Manager Jan Pitman came and shared his knowledge of the 17th Century with KOST: the research has begun for our Queer Strangers project!

The Knights of the Sound Table have been proofing their posters, ready to promote their medieval soundscape - which is now available to listen to via QR code at Norwich Castle!

They've also been visiting the castle, and trying on the costumes :)

Such a fantastic opportunity! 🎙️🎙️🎙️

The Norwich Heritage Collective are taking a well-deserved summer break 🌞

However, they did want to share with you some behind-the-scenes photos of one of their final sessions completing projects for @TheForumNorwich, @AmerLibraryUK, and @museumofnorwich!

A long time ago...
At the Museum of Norwich...
The Knights of the Sound Table made a medieval soundscape for Norwich Castle.

Now, it's here!

Ok, we admit it!
KOST involves history, so sometimes we make notes about really interesting things :)

Big thumbs up to our Year 10 #WorkExperience at Thetford Library and @AncientHouseMus👍

The group met different professionals and learnt about the different jobs in libraries and museums. They also made these lovely decorations for the Library's book tree!

The Knights of the Sound Table's graffiti zines have mindfulness colouring pages on the back. So, of course we had to test them! @museumofnorwich @NorwichCastle
