Members of the Society and their guests are invited to a private viewing of the British Museum’s exhibition Hajj: Journey to the Heart of Islam.

The evening will commence at 6.45pm in the Enlightenment Gallery, off the Great Court, with a talk by Curator of the exhibition, Qaisra Khan. She will also answer any questions members might have. 

The exhibition, which is in the Reading Room, will be open from 7.00pm until 9.00pm. After visiting the exhibition, members will be served drinks and snacks in the Enlightenment Gallery.

Due to the generous sponsorship of this evening by the Saudi-British Bank, members may attend free but we do ask guests to pay £10.
