TO CELEBRATE Museums at Night – the UK’s ‘lates’ festival for the culturally curious – Dave Ayre and his fellow musicians are bringing an eclectic mixture of music to the Museum in the Park Walled Garden pavilion at 8pm on Friday, May 12.

Including music spanning four centuries, the programme is inspired by the parkland setting of the Museum; the heritage of Stroud and Gloucestershire; and the night.

Highlights will include music from Stroud composer Jonathan Trim’s “Heart of the Five Valleys”, and a song setting by Gloucester-born Ivor Gurney of “All Night Under the Moon”, a poem written by Dymock poet Wilfrid Wilson Gibson.

  • Doors and bar open at 7.30 pm. Tickets cost £15 / £10 concessions; to book your tickets, call the Museum on 01453 763394.
