Meet the mysterious founder of The John Rylands Library through our collections. Enriqueta Rylands stayed out of the limelight during her lifetime, so little is known about her.
Join us as we collate her letters and personal effects to tell her story, exploring the reasons for her founding this wonderful library in her husband’s name.
Part of the Wonder Women Festival 2017.
No need to book, just turn up.
