'Sink or Swim? Catholicism in Sixties Britain through John Ryan’s cartoons'

 'Sink or Swim? Catholicism in Sixties Britain through John Ryan’s cartoons' is open until the 13th of April?

Running from the 17th of January to the 13th of April 2019, 'Sink or Swim? Catholicism in Sixties Britain through John Ryan’s cartoons' celebrates the extensive work of Old Amplefordian John Ryan.

This exhibition features John's weekly cartoons in the Catholic Herald which cast a satirical eye on the changes and challenges faced by British Catholicism in the 1960s. This is accompanied by a sister exhibition, Captain Pugwash – Ahoy Me Hearties!, a merry and colourful display of posters that will immerse you in the world of John Ryan's Captain Pugwash books and television programmes - treasure maps, sea monsters, sea battles, and Pugwash's arch enemy, the wicked Cut-Throat Jake.

This exhibition is free to attend. Please click here for more information.
