Diggers: a small research group for beginners
Fridays 11am – 1pm, begins 19th May.
Join any time. In half term there is NO session (2nd June).
Ever done some research on a fascinating subject? This term we are taking the theme Riots and Rebellions-struggles for democracy. We will explore the ideas and demands of the Levellers and Diggers. Then we will explore Peterloo and the Chartist movement. If time we will look at the Otmoor Riots.
We are also writing a small publication on the Oxford St. Scholastica Riots 1355.
We are a small co-operative friendly group for any adult with little or no research experience. The group is stimulating and full of vitality! We meet on Fridays 11-1pm in the same weeks as the other groups as the Museum of Oxford. You are welcome to come along and see if this is for you.
Ask at the Gift Shop for directions.
