POSTS STORIES REELS TAGGED

Thank you to everyone who came to the (fully booked!) Emily Howes event last night! ✨️🥰

Rose and Emily led us through portraits and artists and the lives Gainsborough's daughters, Molly and Peggy led, and how the idea came to her through the simplification of their lives on a plaque underneath their portraits. 🎨

They also spoke of the domestic life of Dickens and how, in controlling this aspect so much, he removed the power from his wife, Kate, in an era where the home was the only place women could have a semblance of power. 🏠

The main theme was finding the themes or emotions Emily wanted to explore through the gaps of their stories, the forgotten women and how they must've felt through their controlled lives. ✨️

It was such a wonderful event & we're so glad so many of you got to attend it! Thank you once again to Rose and to Emily for this fantastic night, and thank you all for coming! ❤️

Never let it be said we don't love sharing and promoting storytelling and stories!

Here's the brilliant Nemonee, showing the Phillipines that Ipswich Book Festival is happening in Ipswich today!

The tale trail for grown-ups was a great success; many thanks to our venues - Ipswich County Library, Pickwicks, Dial Lane Books, Roots Ipswich, and Ipswich Institute!

And many thanks to QuirkHouse stalwart Sian Notley - what a star!

Thank you to The Birkbeck Singers for raising funds for James’ Team at their lunchtime concert this week! A hugely generous sum of £300 was raised with a raffle and retiring collection! This will provide many more copies of the book 'You Are Awesome' to assist children with transition to high school. Together we can make difference and empower young minds here in Suffolk. Thank you for supporting James' Team ❤️
