This illustrated talk will shed light on our exhibition, which showcases the very best of Chinese export fan design from The Museum’s rich collection of Chinese export fans, along with highlights from the Edrina Collection. It is an exciting collaborative project between The Fan Museum and Hong Kong-based author, collector and philanthropist, Edwin Mok, and will also feature porcelain and lacquerware lent by the Oriental Museum, Durham.
Early booking is essential, as all of the previous ‘In Celebration!’ events have sold out well in advance. The 45 minute lecture begins at 7pm sharp, with a drinks reception to follow. Admission to the museum’s exhibition is included in the ticket price (doors open from 6.30pm).
