Event: Spoken for the first time

October 17, 2014 @ 6:00 pm - 7:00 pm

Join us in commemorating World War 1 as we read messages from a large collection of real photographic postcards sent home from the trenches in WW1 by German soldiers, written to family and loved ones. The act of reading will give voice to the dead, the former enemy and the largely forgotten.

The event will be performed by Professor Mike Robinson and Dr Josef Ploner and will feature an exhibition of postcards.

Open to all
