Knowledge Quarter Private View: Global Dickens

Knowledge Quarter

Knowledge Quarter staff and friends are welcome to join our private breakfast view of <A HREF="https://dickensmuseum.com/blogs/exhibitions/global-dickens-for-every-nation-upon-earth" TARGET="_blank" DATA-MSYS-CLICKTRACK="0" REL="nofollow noopener noreferrer">Global Dickens</A> at the Charles Dickens Museum. Enjoy privileged out-of-hours access to the exhibition in the company of lovely, like-minded individuals living and working in the Knowledge Quarter.
This new exhibition presents a global picture of Dickens, exploring the impact of his travels on his life and his writing. Taking his own travels in Europe and North America as a departure point, it examines how this famous author was not only influenced by these places but went on to be a global cultural force, shaping the lives of people around the planet.
 
The Charles Dickens Museum is where the author wrote Oliver Twist, Pickwick Papers and Nicholas Nickleby. It’s where he first achieved international fame as one of the world’s greatest storytellers.The Museum is an international centre for research on Charles Dickens. It contains the world's finest and most comprehensive collection of material relating to his life and work, with over 100,000 items including furniture, personal effects, paintings, prints, photographs, letters, manuscripts, and rare editions.

About KQ Private Views:
Staff and friends of the Knowledge Quarter and its 98 partner organisations get free, out-of-hours access to some of the best exhibitions in London.
Our series of exclusive Private Views has opened the doors (before they open to the public) of the British Museum, The Francis Crick Institute and the Wellcome Collection. More intimate venues such as the House of Illustration and the London Metropolitan Archives have proven equally as popular. These exhibition events, often accompanied by tours, provide an opportunity for the wealth of collection treasures in the Knowledge Quarter to be to be shared and celebrated.
Join us for morning coffee (and a croissant or two), and make new friends with staff working in the Knowledge Quarter as you ponder manuscripts, genomes, butterflies, portraits, illustrations, busts, nudes and much, much more.
