Ikon is open until 8pm every Wednesday during the summer from 10 June until 9 September.
These are a few of my favourite things
Ikon Events Room, 6.30–7.30pm – free
A number of well-known individuals undertake a series of talks inspired
by Desert Island Discs. Asked to select their eight favourite works of
art, speakers will reveal their personal inspirations, illustrated by
a slide show.
Places are free but should be reserved by calling Ikon on tel. 0121 248 0708.
We hope to record and publish each talk in the Media Gallery.
