Event
A Spitzbergen Panorama -An Illustrated Lecture by Colin Dickey
Friday, January 17, 2014 8 o'clock pm _____________
Please join us in welcoming author Colin Dickey, who will talk about his travels in Svalbard, a storied archipelago once known as Spitzbergen.
In 1819, Henry Aston Barker's Leicester Square Panorama unveiled its latest spectacle: an Arctic Panorama based on the voyage of Captain David Buchan and Lieutenant John Franklin to Spitzbergen, an archipelago 1600 miles north of Europe.
In the summer of 2013, Colin Dickey traveled to the same area of Spitzbergen, now known as Svalbard. Join us in welcoming Colin, who will share stories of his adventures sailing up the west coast of the islands and the history of Svalbard.
