"No one exists alone": Henry Moore and W.H. Auden's Graphic Encou
Henry Moore Studio's & Gardens
Sat 21st June 2025
3pm
Join us for a reading of Auden's poems, followed by a discussion of Moore and Auden's relationship.
In 1972, Henry Moore and the writer W.H. Auden began collaborating on an illustrated portfolio of poems from across Auden's career. Moore said of the visual component of the project, that he decided not to illustrate, but to complement and create contrasts to Auden's words.
The resulting publication, Auden Poems, Moore Lithographs, was completed after Auden's death in September 1973. It contains some of Moore's finest, but also most mysterious graphic work: figures and architectural forms veiled in darkness, and cracked, barren landscapes.
In this event, introduced by Tom Laver (Digital Collections Assistant, Henry Moore Studios & Gardens ), readings... Read more

Friday 29th August
Big Wild Pyjama Party at RSPB Rye Meads
RSPB Rye Meads
Fri 29th August 2025
5.30pm - 9.30pm
Our Big Wild Pyjama Party is back for 2025!
Join us for a party with a difference and experience the sights and sounds of nature as it settles down for the night. Don your favourite PJs, grab a teddy bear and a blanket, pop on your wellies and take part in a family-friendly evening in the great outdoors!
We'll start near the visitor centre and take part in evening pond dipping and minibeast hunting to see what small creatures lurk nearby as the sun fades. Bring a picnic of your favourite foods to fuel you, before we head out onto the reserve by torchlight and use our bat detectors to hunt the nocturnal wildlife of Rye Meads! There'll be time for hot chocolate and marshmallows, before sleepy heads can get back home to their nice comfy bed!
