Songs for the Black Magi: Choirs & Tours photo

In this time of reflection we welcome the uplifting sounds of the IDMC Gospel Choir led by John Fisher who will lead a spiritual and multi-faith gathering across the V&A’s galleries. Take one or both of our special tours, In Search of the Black Magi with historian and gallery educator Peter Ashan, or promenade across the Medieval and Renaissance Galleries for an Interfaith Intercultural Experience with independent guide and curator Marilyn Greene.
