Holding it Together: Making, Maintaining and Mending from the Early Modern to the Present

‘Holding it Together’, a two-day symposium taking place in late June 2026, addresses this gap, bringing together makers and scholars of material culture to co-create new and robust concepts of lastingness rooted in both historical understanding and contemporary practice.

Sat 11 July 9:00AM - 6:00PM

A Hundred Years of A Hundred Acres

You are invited to celebrate 100 years of A. A. Milne and E.H. Shepard’s Winnie-the-Pooh. The event brings together scholars to explore what makes Pooh enduringly special, how the stories speak to the present moment, and what new perspectives in children’s literature can reveal about this much-loved classic and its global afterlives.
