Artist talk & music concert: Saturday 17 January 2026, 15:30 free entry

Ida Lawrence will lead an interactive artist talk, where playful storytelling, dialogue and activities bring the show’s themes to life in new and surprising ways. Berlin-based musician and composer, Khaled Kurbeh, will perform a concert amongst the paintings — featuring a sonic menagerie: cow bells, jangling cat collars, bird call whistles, field recordings from nature and live improvised electro-acoustic textures of not yet imagined creatures and landscapes.
