Art Bite: Sculpture in the Cottonian Collection

Join Eleanor Barke one of our Young Explainers to learn how the various sculptures in the Cottonian Collection were created, and the role that sculpture can play in observational study. Everyone who attends our 'Art Bites' tours can use their ticket to get a 10 per cent discount in our café afterwards - so you can grab yourself a quick bite to eat too!
