The Ashmolean welcomes back old friends, and new ones as well to our series of poetry tours in 2023.
Poets from Oxford and surrounding areas will explore and celebrate the Museum’s pieces, renowned or recherche, intriguing or glorious.
On this tour in November, our poet speakers will focus on the theme of colour and displays in the Japan 1600-1850 and Japan from 1850 galleries (36 and 37).
