The Art of E.H. Shepard

As part of the Redbridge Book and Media Festival 2007, Redbridge Museum in Central Library, Ilford, will present a special exhibition of the art of E.H. Shepard, one of England's favourite illustrators, from 1 May to 23 June. Not only will there be illustrations from Winnie-the-Pooh and The Wind In the Willows, but also lesser-known artworks from Shepard's long career. To coincide with this exhibition, Wanstead Library has organized an evening talk on Shepard by Angelo Rossetti, former archivist of the E.H. Shepard collection at Surrey University, on Thursday 17 May at 7pm. Ticket price of £3 includes a glass of wine. For bookings and details telephone 020 8708 2317 or click the title link.
