The Real Thing

The Leaves of Southwell Project presents:
a talk by Tamsin Greaves
19 October 2021
2pm on Microsoft Teams

Join Tamsin Greaves as she discusses her MA Museum and Heritage Development project ‘The Real Thing’ centred upon ‘The Leaves of Southwell’. In this exciting project, Tamsin explores the importance for young people to have the opportunity to visit and experience their local art and culture in ‘real life’ with the case study of introducing our naturalistic 13^th century leaves carvings to Newark secondary school pupils.
