SUMMARY:Wonder of Birds Exhibition
DESCRIPTION:Wonder of Birds Exhibition\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nAbout Wonder of Birds Exhibition\n\n\n\nA major new exhibition at the Bodleian Libraries invites visitors to step into the remarkable world of birds\, exploring their beauty\, symbolism and fragility through art\, literature and science. \n\n\n\nWonder of Birds draws inspiration from The Book of Birds\, created by artist Jackie Morris and writer Robert Macfarlane. Both the exhibition and the book reflect on the decline of bird populations while celebrating their cultural and natural significance. \n\n\n\nCurated by Antonia Harrison\, the exhibition unfolds through seven themed sections – from nest and egg to feather\, flight and migration – combining original artwork and writing with treasures from the Bodleian’s extensive collections. \n\n\n\nVisitors can explore rare and historic material\, including previously unseen glass plate negatives by pioneering wildlife photographer Emma Louisa Turner\, alongside early nature photography from Richard Kearton and his brother Cherry. \n\n\n\nAlso on display are striking life-size illustrations from Birds of America by John James Audubon\, as well as a rare Great Auk egg on loan from Oxford University Museum of Natural History. \n\n\n\nThe exhibition also highlights birds’ enduring influence on culture\, featuring works such as Maya Angelou’s ‘Caged Bird’ and Percy Bysshe Shelley’s handwritten notes on ‘To a Skylark’. Global perspectives include imagery from The Book of the Fixed Stars and the poetic journey of The Conference of the Birds. \n\n\n\nEnhancing the experience\, a specially commissioned soundscape by sound artist Jason Singh immerses visitors in birdsong and natural environments\, while artist duo Daniel & Clara present an interactive ‘Rewilding Imagination field guide’. \n\n\n\n\n			\n				\n			\n		Wonder of Birds poster\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nTickets\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nPlease see important booking information below. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nBooking information\n\n\n\nTicket prices: \n\n\n\nFree admission\, no ticket required \n\n\n\nDates & times: \n\n\n\nSaturday 02 May 2026 to Sunday 03 January 2027 \n\n\n\nMonday to Friday from 9.00am to 5.00pmSaturday from 10.00am to 5.00pmSunday from 11.00am to 4.00pm \n\n\n\nLocation: \n\n\n\nThe Treasury\, Weston Library

SUMMARY:34: The critical raw materials shaping our future
DESCRIPTION:34: The critical raw materials shaping our future\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nAbout Breaking Ground\n\n\n\n34: The Critical Raw Materials Shaping Our Future is a major new exhibition at Oxford University Museum of Natural History explores the hidden materials that power modern life — from smartphones and batteries to medical equipment and jet engines. \n\n\n\nThe exhibition examines the 34 raw materials considered essential to the UK’s future\, revealing the global supply chains\, ethical challenges and scientific innovations behind the minerals that underpin everyday technology. \n\n\n\nDeveloped in collaboration with researchers from the University of Oxford’s Oxford EARTH Programme and departments across the physical\, life and social sciences\, the exhibition explores how increasing demand for green energy and digital technology is transforming the global race for critical materials. \n\n\n\nVisitors can discover why substances such as lithium\, cobalt and rare earth elements are so important to modern society\, why supply chains are becoming increasingly fragile\, and how scientists and industry are searching for more sustainable and ethical ways to source\, use and recycle these materials. \n\n\n\nThrough interactive displays\, scientific research\, historic objects and contemporary technologies\, the exhibition examines the future of extraction\, sustainability and resource security\, while highlighting the environmental and geopolitical challenges linked to critical raw materials. \n\n\n\nDesigned for audiences of all ages\, the exhibition is accompanied by a programme of talks\, workshops\, tours and family activities exploring the science\, ethics and global impact of the materials shaping our future. \n\n\n\nWhat are critical raw materials?\n\n\n\nCritical raw materials are those essential to key technologies but their supply may be limited\, unsustainable or unethical. Critical raw materials tend to have unique chemical properties which make them difficult to replace in technology. The UK government includes 34 raw materials on its designated critical list\, but lists vary from country to country. \n\n\n\n\n\n\naluminium\n\n\n\nantimony\n\n\n\nbismuth\n\n\n\nborates\n\n\n\ncobalt\n\n\n\ngallium\n\n\n\ngermanium\n\n\n\nhafnium\n\n\n\nhelium\n\n\n\nindium\n\n\n\niridium\n\n\n\niron\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nlithium\n\n\n\nmagnesite\n\n\n\nmagnesium\n\n\n\nmanganese\n\n\n\nnatural graphite\n\n\n\nnickel\n\n\n\nniobium\n\n\n\nphosphorus\n\n\n\nplatinum\n\n\n\nrare earth elements (REEs)\n\n\n\nrhenium\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nrhodium\n\n\n\nruthenium\n\n\n\nsilicon\n\n\n\nsodium\n\n\n\ntantalum\n\n\n\ntellurium\n\n\n\ntin\n\n\n\ntitanium\n\n\n\ntungsten\n\n\n\nvanadium\n\n\n\nzinc\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nTickets\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nPlease see important booking information below. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nBooking information\n\n\n\nPrices: \n\n\n\n\nEntry to the Museum is FREE and not ticketed.\n\n\n\nNo booking required.\n\n\n\nBooking is required for organisations/groups of more than ten people visiting on the same day.\n\n\n\n\nOpening hours: \n\n\n\n\nMonday to Sunday from 10.00am to 5.00pm\n\n\n\nLast entry at 4.45pm\n\n\n\nClosed on 24\, 25\, & 26 December\n\n\n\n\nAccessibility: \n\n\n\nPlease contact the friendly team at the museum by telephone (01865 272 950) or email (foh@oum.ox.ac.uk) \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nGallery\n\n\n\nClick images to expand \n\n\n\n\nBattery Ores\n\n\n\nBismuth\n\n\n\nCobalt\n\n\n\nDysprosium\n\n\n\nHalite\n\n\n\nREEs\n\n\n\n\nImage credit: Sarah Bell

SUMMARY:Monteverdi Choir and Orchestras: Handel’s Theodora
DESCRIPTION:Monteverdi Choir and Orchestras: Handel’s Theodora\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nAbout Monteverdi Choir and Orchestras: Handel’s Theodora\n\n\n\nHandel’s great oratorio is one of the most celebrated choral works of the 18th century. A radical vision of faith and freedom. \n\n\n\nPerformed by the Monteverdi Choir and English Baroque Soloists\, under the direction of Christophe Rousset\, this concert staging brings new light to Handel’s masterpiece.  \n\n\n\nTheodora is a much loved oratorio and a powerful 18th-century vision of utopia. Set in Roman-occupied Antioch\, it tells the story of a Christian martyr who defies empire in the name of faith and freedom. \n\n\n\nTheodora offers a vision of moral clarity\, spiritual courage\, and inner freedom. Its radiant music and intimate drama offer a vision of a better world: one governed by conscience\, not coercion.  \n\n\n\nPerformers: \n\n\n\nMarie Lys Theodora \n\n\n\nIestyn Davies Didymus \n\n\n\nAlice Coote Irene \n\n\n\nGuy Cutting Septimius \n\n\n\nJohn Chest Valens \n\n\n\nJonathan Hanley Messenger \n\n\n\nMonteverdi Choir and English Baroque Soloists \n\n\n\nChristophe Rousset conductor \n\n\n\nRepertoire: \n\n\n\nHandel Theodora \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nReviews\n\n\n\n\n“The Monteverdi Choir has dominated the choral scene worldwide … their singing remains wonderfully committed and scrupulously focused.” \n\n\n\n\nThe Guardian \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nTickets\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nPlease see important booking information below. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nBooking information\n\n\n\nTicket prices: \n\n\n\nAdult – From £34.65 \n\n\n\nStudent – From £15.00 \n\n\n\nTickets are subject to a transaction fee \n\n\n\nDates & times: \n\n\n\nWednesday 18 November 2026 at 7.00pm \n\n\n\nRunning time: \n\n\n\n3 hours\, including an interval \n\n\n\nLocation: \n\n\n\nSohmen Concert Hall

SUMMARY:Welsh National Opera - La boheme
DESCRIPTION:Welsh National Opera – La boheme\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nAbout Welsh National Opera – La boheme\n\n\n\nIn the Latin Quarter of Paris\, four young artists live for the moment\, sharing what little they have\, chasing big dreams and laughing through the cold.  \n\n\n\nWhen Rodolfo meets Mimì\, a quiet seamstress with a fading light\, their connection is instant and unforgettable. But in a world shaped by poverty and passion\, love burns brightly but all too briefly. \n\n\n\nPuccini’s deeply moving masterpiece captures the passion of youth through some of the most beautiful and recognisable music ever written. La bohème evokes the spirit and intensity of bohemian life: the joy of falling in love\, the pain of letting go\, and the fragility of it all. \n\n\n\n\n			\n				\n			\n		Welsh National Opera – La boheme\n\n\n\nThis acclaimed production reimagines this beloved story with striking clarity and emotional power. Set in a stark\, monochrome world inspired by 1930s Paris where shadows linger and the presence of death is never far away. \n\n\n\nThe result is a La bohème that feels both timeless and contemporary. It paints a vivid portrait of young lives lived on the edge\, where every moment matters and every goodbye cuts deep. \n\n\n\nSung in Italian with surtitles in English and Welsh \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nTickets\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nPlease see important booking information below. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nBooking information\n\n\n\nTicket prices: \n\n\n\nFrom £15.00 \n\n\n\nTickets are subject to a transaction fee \n\n\n\nDates & times: \n\n\n\nThursday 19 November 2026 at 7.30pm \n\n\n\nRunning time: \n\n\n\n2 hours 20 minutes\, including an interval \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nAbout New Theatre Oxford\n\n\n\n\n			\n				\n			\n		\n\n\n\n\n\n			\n				\n			\n		\n\n\n\n\n			\n				\n			\n		\n\n\n\n\n			\n				\n			\n		\n\n\n\n\nThere has been a theatre on George Street for almost 170 years.
