The St Mary’s Hall Coventry Tapestry: Weaving the Threads Together Book Launch

Please join us for the launch of the book “The St Mary’s Hall Coventry Tapestry: Weaving the Threads Together”. When Coventry was European City of Culture in 2019 a conference was held to celebrate one of the city’s most precious cultural legacies, the early-sixteenth-century tapestry in St Mary’s Hall. The proceedings of that conference are now published with additional materials and many high-resolution photographs, edited by Mark Webb.

The evening will include a panel talk with contributors Joanna Laynesmith, Jonathan Foyle, Wendy Toulson and Mark Webb, the opportunity to buy the book and light refreshments.
