This Saturday 28th March at 1pm I will be at Brighton 6th Form College’s Community History Festival, to give an excellent talk about the Victorian artist Aubrey Beardsley.
Beardsley was a pupil of the college from its time as Brighton Grammar School. I will be explaining how his work relates to Oscar Wilde, the Beatles, Harry Styles and Heartstopper, and will show how this is all the fault of Brighton.
I will also have a stall at the festival to sell copies of my diary book, which has a cover influenced by Beardsley.
The festival is open to the general public and is free. It takes place from 11am to 2pm at the BHASVIC main site, 205 Dyke Road, BN3 6EG. More info at www.bhasvicfestival.co.uk
