The Stirling Smith Art Gallery and Museum

A talk by Tim Moller, The Headley Trust Project Curator at The British Museum, about rediscoveries from the museum's Sudan collection.

5th December at 1pm | Doors open at 12:30pmSince 2024, the British Museum has been given the opportunity to digitise its entire collection, making it accessible online to the international community. This initiative has brought renewed attention to many objects that have received historically limited curatorial focus. In this talk, Tim Moller, the Headley Trust Project Curator in the Department of Egypt and Sudan, will discuss the digitisation process and highlight significant objects from Sudan and Nubia, offering insights into both their historical context and the development of the Museum’s holdings.In lieu of ticket payment we suggest a £5 donation to UNICEF's Sudan appeal to support humanitarian aid in the country. <a href="https://www.unicef.org.uk/donate/sudan-appeal/?msclkid=78e1873241dd15d8ec79ee2622a090f3&utm_source=bing&utm_medium=cpc&utm_campaign=**DM-Sudan-Conflict-Emergency-MKAG-Plus&utm_term=charities%20working%20in%20sudan&utm_content=Sudan%20Conflict" title="https://www.unicef.org.uk/donate/sudan-appeal/?msclkid=78e1873241dd15d8ec79ee2622a090f3&utm_source=bing&utm_medium=cpc&utm_campaign=**DM-Sudan-Conflict-Emergency-MKAG-Plus&utm_term=charities%20working%20in%20sudan&utm_content=Sudan%20Conflict" target="_blank" data-msys-clicktrack="0" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer">Donate to Sudan Appeal for Children in Crisis - UNICEF UK</a>
