War Games
Wednesday 5 June

Curators Sarah Wood and Ieuan Hopkins talk about War Games, a dynamic and provocative new exhibition that illustrates the diverse ways that play and toys recreate and represent warfare. The lecture will explore the secret history of toys used as tools of war and espionage, and looks at the impact conflict has had on children's play and toy manufacturing.
