Event Description

The Katharine Project will be popping up libraries across Essex and Suffolk thanks to our innovative partnership with Essex Library Service and Suffolk Community Libraries.

Drop by our free, interactive pop-up to see how this incredible project is being made right here in East Anglia:

-The Katharine Mix: Grab some headphones and explore the library while listening to snippets of our immersive soundtrack (rehearsed in Harwich, recorded in Walton-on-the-Naze!).

-Exclusive Bonus Track: Hear a brand-new audio piece specially commissioned for Essex and Suffolk libraries, exploring Katharine's love of books and her role in championing women's education.

-Get Involved: Share your thoughts through quick, fun creative exercises and help shape the future of the show.

-And in certain libraries join either an artist talk to find out more or a practical creative writing workshop

Whether you’re a history buff, a theatre lover, or just popping in to change your books, stop by, say hello, and get a sneak peek of a project proudly made here in East Anglia
