If you have a question about this talk, please contact John Wilkins .

Dr Andy Szydlo, of Highgate School, London, will dazzle his audience with science in a series of vivid demonstrations.

An enthusiastic science communicator, he frequently gives lectures in the UK and has appeared on Channel 4’s TV series That’ll teach ‘em. He is also an expert on the history of alchemy. His book, Water that does not wet hands: The Alchemy of Michael Sendivogius, tells the story of an unfairly forgotten Polish alchemist.

Warning – There will be flashes and bangs!

The lecture will be suitable for all ages (9-90).

Free admission. N.B. No tickets – so come early to get a good seat. Doors open at 18:30.
