Come and experience Vigil, a wild and playful encounter with internationally threatened animals inspired by the Grant Museum's unique zoology collection.
Artist Tom Bailey performs a timely exploration of today’s mass animal disappearance in a poignant, artistic and often comic way.
Part of UCL's Performance Lab programme of experiments in art and science, Vigil has been created in collaboration with researchers from the university.
Vigil will take place Thu 6 Jun and Fri 7 Jun 2019, 18:30. Tickets are £5, booking essential. Click here to book your place.

See Skullpture, a new exhibition of experimental artworks at the Grant Museum by students from the UCL Slade School of Fine Art.
Sculpture students have been invited to place works among the museum’s own weird and wonderful specimens, take over entire cabinets or use other voids and spaces in the building.
These new works sit alongside historic skeletons, skulls and specimens preserved in jars to transform the historic zoological museum.
Skullpture is at the Grant Museum 3 Jun 2019 – 7 Sep 2019, 13:00-17:00. Free. Open Monday - Saturday.

Plural Animal Wednesdays

You might have heard of a herd of sheep, a flock of birds and a swarm of insects - but how about a leap of leopards, a shrewedness of apes or a murmuration of starlings?
