As well as the usual events and activities that go on in our vibrant suburban village, this week we have some events that are worth a special mention. For more information about what goes on in Acocks Green check out the What’s On in AG page and the Going’s On in AG and if you would like to update us then get in touch.

Tuesday – Julian Harrison – from the world renowned British Library, who is curator of the current free Library of Birmingham’s Our Shakespeare Exhibition, will be in Acocks Green Library on Tuesday afternoon (2pm), to give what promises to be an interesting talk on Things You Didn’t Know about Shakespeare. You can’t fail to miss all the celebrations of the playwright’s life this year, but we are lucky to have a visit from this high profile academic who recently curated the Magna Carta Exhibition in the British Library, London.
