During the exhibition, we presented a wide range of free public talks by lecturers based at the UEA and other universities as well as freelance speakers. Topics ranged from international relations to anime and Japanese poetry. You can watch extracts of the talks by clicking on this link. We also offered a series of family days at each exhibition venue; The Forum, Norwich (Sept 26th 2009); Great Yarmouth Library Exhibition Galleries (3rd Oct 2009), and Peterborough Museum and Art Gallery (24th Oct 2009).
