Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them (At the V&A)

At the V&A, I often led talks and tours. I tailored them to various audiences, including to school or university groups, and inclusive tours such tours for the Visually Impaired. I developed a tour for the V&A’s Friday Late on the theme of ‘Pets’. It was aimed at children – although, enjoyable for all ages – and focused on the weird and wonderful imagined or charmingly misrepresented animals in the V&A’s collection. There were snails carrying tombs, elephants with hooves, and entirely fabricated beasts featured.
