Had a wonderful evening last night at Sevenoaks Museum - Thank you to all the people who attended the War and Creativity Evening. Professor Graham Witham gave a very illuminating talk about Artists and Art from the First World War and I read poems that spanned the 20th Century and sang Anti-War songs. It was so uplifting when the audience joined in with Johnny I hardly knew ye, The Universal Soldier and Blowing in the Wind. Many thanks to Curator Susan Gosling for organizing the evening.
