The Magdalen Memories Cafe is part of MAC (Magdalen and St Augustone Street Celebration) on 13th October 2012 from 11-5 at Epic Studios 112-114 Magdalen Street.
It's like a pop-up museum....we’ll be taking over the cafe at Epic Studios with digital and traditional displays of old Magdalen Street, a 1-day-only chance to view a John Thirtle painting from Gallery 1821 – one of the Norwich School of Artists who had a framing workshop on Magdalen Street at No. 26 (Now the Big C charity shop)-, a chance to locate yourself in the story of Magdalen Street by making your very own blue plaque, historians on hand to help you research your own past and engage with the exhibitions, and finally, make sure kids to bring your poorly dolls and teddies to our Doll Doctor in memory of the Doll’s Hospital once at no.62. Oooo it's going to be great. See you there!
With thanks to the Plunkett family via Heart who have supplied photos, to the Records Office who have supplied copies of some fascinating documents, to Art 1821 for the amazing chance to have a real, live Thirtle painting and to Epic for having us.
