Lunchtime Art Talk: Esperanto

Join us for a live discussion as we dive into the origins, utopian aims and legacy of Esperanto - a language created in the 19th Century that aspired to become the world's universal language and today is still spoken by two million people. Celebrating WAM’s Living Breathing Stories theme, we’ll explore our major exhibition, Newell Harry's Esperanto and ask if it’s possible for language to transform society, or is it the other way round?    

Come and enjoy this perfect bite-size portion of art in your lunch break. Audience questions, interpretation and open discussion are encouraged as a member of the Museum team offers an introduction and personal insight into the artwork.
