FASCINATION OF PLANTS 2024
Posted May 15, 2024
Fantastic year in Lancaster with three different events!!!
We started with the exhibition at Lancaster University Library, that will be open until the 20th of May.
On the 15th of May, the Special Collections and Archive team, prepared a beautiful exhibition “Plants in the Special Collections”. Because both reading and being around plants help reduce stress, what better way to mark Fascination of Plants Day and Mental Health Awareness Week that an exhibition of beautiful books about plants.
Our third event will take place on the 18th of May, in Lancaster Charter Market, from 10am to 4pm. We will be doing activities, games, and we have prepared a map with a trail to visit the beautiful green spaces around Lancaster.
Hope to see you there!
