In May we learned about Pete Fij’s fascination with the desolation and brutalist architecture of multi-storey carparks, author Doug Devaney took us on a journey into the creation of his new novel, Black Vinyl, and artist Becky Edmunds revealed what happened when she found the extraordinary diaries of a man, Dick Percival, in a skip in Hove, that spanned from 1930 to the 1970s.

We’re back in June (on Monday not Tuesday), with folk historian Clare Rackish, award-winning nature writer Mike Unwin and teacher George Butcher with a talk about a truly unique human being.
