An Evening with Martin Jennings

Renowned sculptor Martin Jennings is best known for his statues of Sir John Betjeman at St Pancras Station, George Orwell outside the BBC and the bust of HM Queen Elizabeth the Queen Mother at St Paul’s Cathedral. He was also commissioned to produce a bust of Sir Edward Heath in 1991.

Jennings’s illustrated talk will address the process of making public statues of the great and good. The lecture will complement his exhibition “Poets, Plumbers and Politicians”, which will be running at Arundells from the 30th April until the 19th July.
