Conference in Honour of Sarah Jennings

The Medieval Pottery Research Group and the Association for the History of Glass are organising a one day conference in honour of the late Sarah Jennings. The day will consist of papers on the theme of Recent Research and New Discoveries in Glass and Ceramics and will end with a wine reception. The conference representing some of Sarah's many ceramic and glass interests will be introduced by Duncan Brown, President of the MPRG; Justine Bayley, President of the AHG will bring proceedings to a close with an appreciation of Sarah’s role in the societies to whom she gave so much time. The morning and afternoon sessions will be chaired by Duncan Brown and Tony Wilmott respectively.

The Wallace Collection, London have kindly made available their lecture theatre for the event which will be on Friday 16th November 2012.

Jennifer Price of the AHG has volunteered to handle bookings and her contact details are on the attached notice and booking form, which is available here.

Please note:
Many more people than can speak in one day will wish to pay tribute to Sarah therefore MPRG and AHG are planning to publish a volume in the MPRG Occasional Paper series dedicated to Sarah, which will contain the conference papers and more contributions from her many friends and colleagues. Further details of this and how you can contribute if you wish will be posted on the two groups' websites shortly.
