Join facilitators from our visitor experience and library teams to explore posters and prints of mosquitoes and the diseases they carry.
We'll have material from our collection on display, including graphic imagery warning of the risks of malaria, dengue and yellow fever. Highlights include work by British designer Abram Games.
Our facilitators will be on hand to discuss the stories behind the material and the history of public health messaging.
We’ll be in the Viewing Room. It’s next to the Library entrance on level 2, which you can reach by taking the lift or the stairs.
Just turn up to this event. It's likely to have room for everyone.
Key visual elements referred to during this event will be described.
This is a relaxed event. You are welcome to move freely around the space. You can leave and re-enter whenever you wish, and you can make noise at any time.
