Events

Join us in the garden at Milton’s Cottage for an evening of Pimm’s, canapés and entertainment.

We’ll be exploring themes of persuasion and seduction with readings from Milton and Shakespeare interspersed with music and singing. Be charmed by Orpheus’ lyre, and seduced by Milton’s serpent.

Tickets cost £20 if purchased in advance online, via the link above, or £25 on the gate.  For further information please email friends@miltonscottage.org or visit their website: https://www.friendsofmiltonscottage.org.uk/

All proceeds from this event will directly support Milton’s Cottage.

Join our September Drink & Ink session and create your own Tetra-pak print with award-winning local artist Elly Bazigos.

Visit the museum out-of-hours, enjoy a drink as you explore your artistic side, and discover the fun of print-making against a backdrop of rare books and early printed pamphlets.

Elly will take you step-by-step through the process of Tetra-pak printing to create your own artwork to take home. It’s relaxed, it’s creative, and it’s your chance to get inky over a drink, without the structure of a formal workshop – perfect for beginners and seasoned creatives alike.

The workshop costs £10, with all materials and tuition provided and your first drink for free. There is limited availability, with advanced booking recommended.
