The Arcane And The Archive

This one day symposium is a joint collaborative event between the Senate House Library and the Warburg Institute. It will explore facets of the occult world by bringing together speakers and rarely exhibited materials from both libraries. The occult is other-worldly and mysterious, but human beings are innately curious and in this symposium we hope to reveal and unravel its secrets. As we begin to understand the mysteries of the occult, we begin to understand ourselves. All welcome! This event is part of the School of Advanced Study event series 'Hidden & Revealed'.

As our Festival events are free, not everyone who asks for tickets comes to our events. To make sure we have a full house we allocate more tickets than there are seats. We do our best to get the numbers right, but unfortunately we occasionally have to disappoint people. Admission is on a first come, first served basis, so please arrive in good time for the start of the event.
