Ten-Minute Talk and Tea - Dear Mr Urban: The Gentleman's Magazine in 1731

Discover more about the Order of St John, St John Ambulance and the history of Clerkenwell at our free Ten-Minute Talk and Tea events which take place on the second Thursday of every month. Tea and biscuits provided.

Discover how one monthly publication defined a century, created careers, and invented a still used publication format all with the backdrop of the iconic image of St John’s Gate. This talk explores the early years of the first ever magazine.

This is a free event. Drop-ins are welcome, or you can pre-register through Eventbrite. The event will take place in the Museum Galleries which are on ground level with step-free access throughout.
