As part of the Richmond Arts and Ideas Festival, a new interactive installation by Marie Klimis lands at four of our borough libraries.

Equipped with your own smartphone and headphones, you'll be transported on an adventure across the library, following the extraordinary and everyday story of a young bird migrating from West Africa to the UK.

This event is free of charge, and a unique experience for residents and visitors alike. Visitors will need to book an entry slot online.

This is a personal, interactive experience that will last between 45 and 60 minutes. It is suitable for adults and children (aged 7+). Children under 14 must be accompanied by an adult.
