SUMMARY:Opus 48: J. S. Bach - Mass in B Minor
DESCRIPTION:Opus 48\, together with the incredible talents of the Musical and Amicable Society orchestra and rising star soloists\, brings this monumental score to the splendour of Oxford’s Sheldonian Theatre\nJohann Sebastian Bach’s Mass in B Minor stands as a pinnacle of the choral repertoire. Completed in the final years of his life\, the Mass represents the culmination of a lifetime of musical genius – a summation of Bach’s profound faith\, dazzling contrapuntal skill and unrivalled ability to touch the human spirit. \n  \nRather than composing the Mass in one sitting\, Bach assembled it across several decades\, reworking earlier movements and writing new music of extraordinary ambition to create a universal statement of belief. The result is a vast musical tapestry that brings together every style he mastered: joyous ceremonial choruses\, intimate arias of personal reflection\, athletic fugues of breathtaking complexity and moments of luminous stillness. Few works match its scope\, variety or emotional reach. \n  \nFrom the extraordinary opening of the Kyrie and the exuberance of the Gloria to the serene transcendence of the Sanctus and the radiance of the final Dona nobis pacem\, this is music of astonishing breadth. \n  \nOpus 48\, together with the incredible talents of the Musical and Amicable Society orchestra and rising star soloists\, brings this monumental score to the splendour of Oxford’s Sheldonian Theatre. This promises to be an unforgettable evening of one of the greatest works ever written\, performed live in Oxford. \n  \n\n  \nTicket Information \n\nFull price tickets: £15 – £50\nConcessions: £10 – £40\nAge range: All Ages\nDoors open at 18:30\nThis concert will last 2 hours and 30 minutes with an interval\nLatecomers to be permitted at an appropiate pause in the music\nFor ticketing queries\, please contact admin@opus48choir.co.uk

As day turns to night\, and reality becomes illusion\, can anyone stop the Dream from becoming a nightmare? \nFollowing 2022’s ‘extraordinary’ ★★★★ (The Observer) co-production of Henry V\, Shakespeare’s Globe collaborates once again with ‘hugely influential’ (Time Out) touring theatre company Headlong to shine candlelight on the shadowy underbelly of one of Shakespeare’s most-loved plays. \nHeadlong’s Artistic Director Holly Race Roughan directs\, with co-direction from Naeem Hayat (The Comedy of Errors\, 2023/24). \nDiscover the magic of Shakespeare’s A Midsummer Night’s Dream as you’ve never seen it before. \nThis production is generously supported by Charles Holloway OBE. \n\n \n\n4 Stars \n Urgent\, fascinating… a moral thriller\nWhatsOnStage \n\n \n\n4 Stars \n Mesmerisingly unusual reading\nThe Stage \n\n\nImage gallery

SUMMARY:Pets & their People
DESCRIPTION:  11 March – 27 September 2026 \n ST Lee Gallery\, Weston Library \n Free admission\, no ticket required \nAbout the exhibition\nWe have been domesticating animals for over ten thousand years. But why do we want tame wolves in our homes or wild cats on our laps? \nThis exhibition explores the relationship between humans and their pets – or pets and their humans. \nPets & their People draws on depictions of pets in stories\, imagery and poetry in the Bodleian’s collection – from one of the earliest recorded depictions of an assistance dog for the blind to a rare copy of Alice’s Adventures in Wonderland that has never been displayed in the UK before. The exhibition asks how the special bond between owners and their pets has evolved over time\, and what that evolution tells us about who we really are. \nAre we taming our pets\, or are they bring us back to our wild roots? \nCurators\nCharles Foster\, Fellow of Exeter College and bestselling author of Being a Beast \nAcknowledgements\nPets & their People is made possible with generous support from the John S Cohen Foundation.

SUMMARY:Brokenness and repair exhibition
DESCRIPTION:Venue:\n\nThe Glass Tank\, Oxford Brookes University\n\n\n\nDate(s):\n\nMonday\, 26 January 2026 to Friday\, 6 February 2026\n\n\n\nTiming:\n\n9am – 5pm\n\n\n\nCost:\n\n0\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nInspired by the sublime beauty of techniques of visual repair across cultures\, these works invite reflection on brokenness and why it matters. \nIn recent years\, the traditional Japanese technique of repairing broken pottery using lacquer\, often embellished with gold or other precious metals\, known as ‘kintsugi’ has fascinated and inspired not only contemporary artists\, but also pscyhologists\, philosophers\, scientists and archaeologists. But the idea of caring for something that is broken and finding beauty in its imperfection resonates much more widely. Whether we are living with the painful yet precious memories of loss\, or trying to reassemble places of belonging from the remnants of abandoned buildings\, brokenness and repair speak to our fundamental ways of being in the world. \nThrough sculpture\, sound\, images\, and pottery\, this exhibition creates a space of dialogue between Japanese aesthetics of brokenness and repair and those of other cultures. Each piece invites visitors to reflect on the complex\, sometimes challenging beauty of brokenness\, and the care and attention involved in repair. \nThe exhibition includes original works from Rob Simpkins\, Katie Taylor\, Johanna Tulloch\, Dan O’Brien\, Natasha Durie\, Juliet Eccles\, and Rachel Barbaresi\, as well as kintsugi pieces by Iku Nishikawa (Oxford Kintsugi). \nAll are invited to join us to meet the artists and organisers over wine and refreshments. \nThis exhibition and reception was made possible through the generous support of the Great Britain Sasakawa Foundation. \n\n\n\n\nFurther Information\n\nContact Details:\n\n\nhttps://www.brookes.ac.uk/about-brookes/…\nhttps://www.eventbrite.co.uk/e/brokennes… \ndobrien@brookes.ac.uk

SUMMARY:FORAGE & NIBBLE near Oxford (Oxfordshire)
DESCRIPTION:Overview\n\n\n\n\nA 3-hour session with a foraging expert\, including ID work\, tasting wild ingredients and a wild snack near Oxford \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nThis course is designed to get you as involved as possible – this includes identifying\, picking and tasting a range of wild species that will be found on the day. There will also be samples of wild food and drink for everyone to get stuck into and a pre-made wild snack!\n\nThe focus with all of our workshops is on the 4 ‘F’s of Foraging: Fungi\, Fruit\, Flowers and Foliage. We aim for an array of these elements on every session we run (weather and season permitting!) \n\n\n\n\nEvent sold out or can’t make this date? Head to www.foragebox.co.uk/workshops or view our Eventbrite profile to browse all available sessions. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nWhat To ExpectOur ‘Forage & Nibble’ workshops are exactly that: you will spend the day learning how to forage with your tutor and then be treated to a ‘wild snack’ to put it all into context! These have become our most popular events and are available at numerous locations around the country. \nDURATION: 3 hours (approx 2.5 hours of foraging and 30 mins preparing and eating your wild snack) \nWe like to keep some elements a surprise for the day\, but here is what you can expect from your foraging workshop: \n\na short introduction regarding the safety and format of the day\n\n\ndiscussions around foraging tips\, safety\, ethics\, etiquette\, sustainability and the law\n\n\na circular walking route taking in different growing environments around the site. Expect a route of around 2-3km predominantly on footpaths\n\n\na closer look at edible wild species and any poisonous lookalikes by a professional forager\n\n\na chance to slow the pace of modern life down\, meet new people and immerse yourself in a soul-nourishing activity\, reconnecting with nature and discovering new flavours\n\n\nsmall tasters of wild food – this may even include freshly-picked items straight from the wild and a wild snack. Your wild snack might be something we find on the day freshly cooked in the woods\, a hunk of homemade sourdough with some wild pickles and preserves\, or even a big slice of cake (our tutors are decent cooks too so it could be something even better!)\n\n\nour workshops are run in a welcoming and informal fashion\, where attendee questions and contributions are encouraged\n\n\nafter the event\, you will be sent a follow-up email containing a list of everything we found on the day. Please do not expect photos or descriptions in this email – it is purely a list for reference purposes\, and we find it helps people do further research in their own time.\n\nPlease note: as with most of our events\, this is an educational experience and not a ‘basket-filling’ session. \nAt the end of the session\, there may be a small selection of our wild products and workshop vouchers available to purchase (card and cash accepted). This is a recent element of our events after enough attendees made enquiries about it – there is no pressure to buy anything having already bought tickets but sometimes people want a souvenir to take with them! Please speak to your tutor about this at the end. \n\n\n\nWho Is This Workshop For?These events are perfect for everyone – families\, bushcrafters and dog-walkers alike! Nobody is made to feel out of their depth or silly for not knowing what certain things are\, so these events suit absolute novices to more experienced hobby foragers alike. \nWe strongly believe that foraging is for everyone\, with all demographics welcome\, regardless of age\, ability\, gender or ethnicity. \nPlease read our FAQs further down the page to find out about dogs\, children and mobility. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nIMPORTANT INFORMATIONKIT LIST: What to bring with you \nDIETARY REQUIREMENTS: You will be asked for any dietary requirements when completing your booking. Please note that our workshops may not be suitable for vegans and coeliacs unless you inform us of these dietary requirements in advance – we may use butter or bread\, for example. Bookings made within 48 hours of the event start time may not allow for your tutor to cater for specific dietary requirements – please get in touch if this is a concern. \nAttendees are encouraged to walk\, cycle or use public transport to get to the destination. \nEXACT MEETING POINT: On the field side of the gate into the field \nGoogle Maps: https://maps.app.goo.gl/JNACsAVYcpxLkova9 \nWhat3Words: https://w3w.co/sailor.shows.activism \nPARKING: Limited on-street parking is available near the meeting point. Please be considerate when leaving your car by parking as close to the adjacent cars as you can\, to allow the maximum number of cars to park. Do not block access or gates. \nTOILETS: Toilets are not available at this venue \nPlease arrive well in time for the start of the workshop\, allowing extra time for the distance from your parked car to the meeting point and any toilet trips – we don’t tend to wait for late-comers! \nYour foraging guide for the day should arrive on site at least an hour before the start and will start gathering the group together approximately 15 minutes before the official start time. If you cannot find your tutor around that time\, there is a chance you are looking in the wrong place\, so please check the event information for the exact location (not the postcode) \nSignage can sometimes be limited\, so keep an eye out for anyone with a foraging basket! \nMinimum number of guests for this event to go ahead: 8 people \nPLEASE NOTE: We do not provide guests with a contact telephone number for your tutor. This is for privacy puropses but also because it is impractical to do so – your tutor simply wouldn’t be able to take a call whilst with a group. If you need to get in contact\, please use the email function via eventbrite or our website. \nStart getting excited! \nIn advance of your foraging workshop\, we thought you might be interested in the following:\nOur Field Notes website page \n‘What will I find on my Forage Box workshop?’ \nA guide to our workshops formats \nTrustpilot reviews from previous workshop guests \nForage Box TV\, our YouTube channel \nOur website FAQs \nWorkshop Safety Policy\, Cancellation and Other Relevant Information \nOur Safeguarding Policy

SUMMARY:Camera Club: Glow
DESCRIPTION:Camera Club is part of The North Wall’s YouthLab programme\, which supports young people aged 12-17 in developing their creative skills alongside professional artists. Every year a group of 6-8 aspiring photographers works with artist Elina Medley to create images using digital SLR cameras and then to curate an exhibition of photography. \nLast summer they worked in the studio as well as the streets and parks of Oxford to experiment with different subject matter and approaches to image-making. Over four days they built on their technical and creative skills and discovered the subjects they love to photograph. \nDuring the October half term\, they immersed themselves in several exhibitions of photography and learnt so much about how to curate their own exhibition. In February the group spent a day at Magdalen Road Studios curating their exhibition and writing the supporting materials. \nCome along and meet our latest cohort of wonderful photographers; they will be staffing the gallery during the show. \nThis exhibition takes place at Magdalen Road Studios \n\nExhibition Opening\nSaturday 28 March 3-4pm\nPlease join us for light refreshments and a chance to meet the young artists.\nFree event / no booking required \n \n\n\n\n\nCamera Club: Glow\nTicketsFree entry
