SUMMARY:Kernow to the Crystal Palace: Mary Kelynack’s Extraordinary Journey - a talk from Pamela Vass.
DESCRIPTION:  \n \n  \nIn August 1851 a curiously dressed\, elderly woman was seen trudging along Southampton High Street. Passers by couldn’t fail to notice her\, she wore a huge beaver bonnet and carried a corracle-like basket on her back. She was a Cornish fisherwoman\, she said\, in her 84th year\, and was walking to London from the Land’s End to see the Great Exhibition. \n\n\nMary Kelynack spent her entire life in the small community of Newlyn in the far west of Cornwall. Yet she became so inspired by the wonders of the Great Exhibition in the Crystal Palace that she resolved to go. Travelling by steamer\, coach or train was beyond her means but there was one thing she could do – walk. \n\n\nBefore long she had become quite a celebrity – noticed at the Great Exhibition\, taking tea with the Lord Mayor\, interviewed by the Illustrated London News\, modelled by a famous sculptor\, having a song and a polka named after her… and even greeting the Queen. \n\n\n\n\nThis illustrated presentation reveals the truth behind the Cornish legend that is Mary Kelynack\, covering her extraordinary journey\, her adventures in London and her final\, and previously unreported\, adventure. \nTICKETS \n\n\n\nTickets are allocated by a ballot system. \n\n\nPlease email enquiries@morrablibrary.org.uk or call 01736 364474 to be entered into the ballot for a ticket. The ballot closes on Monday 6th April. \n\n\nEntry to this event is free but donations are welcomed to help support The Morrab Library (suggested £5). \n\n\nRefreshments will be provided after the talk. \n\n\nCopies of Pamela’s book will be sold at the talk.

SUMMARY:Relaxed Book Group at The Morrab Library
DESCRIPTION:About the group: \nA friendly group for anyone who loves books but doesn’t want the pressure of a traditional book club. \nRather than reading a specific book\, we share what’s on our bookshelf or simply come for tea\, biscuits and company in the beautiful book-filled atmosphere of The Morrab library. \nNo library membership is required and there’s no compulsory reading list. \nAudiobook listeners are just as welcome as traditional readers. \nWe explore all types of books\, swap books and share recommendations. Our discussions focus on what we’re looking for in a book and whether and when\, we’ve found it. \nWhen: The last Tuesday of the month\, from 2pm-3pm. The first session will take place on Tuesday 25th March \nWhere: The Morrab Library\, Morrab Gardens\, Penzance\, TR18 4DA \nHow to book: To join the group contact Jo Buckingham by email jo.buckingham.palace@gmail.com\nSuggested donation £3. \nAbout the group leader: \nJoanna Buckingham started her first relaxed book group with friends in 2019 and got the idea of starting one at Morrab Library when working as a social prescriber as a way of creating supportive communities. \nShe loves the camaraderie and support of doing things in groups and the immersive experience of reading. She loves reading widely across many genres. \nShe’s organised group events and experiences in such diverse locations as tall ships and tin mines. \nJoanna has set up and supported numerous groups whilst working in the museum and adventurous activity industry and as a social prescriber. \nShe is a level 3 trained counsellor and knows the importance of both being a good listener and having a good book to fall back on in times of need (Cold Comfort farm by Stella Gibbons always works for her) \n
