OxTalks is Changing
OxTalks will soon move to the new Halo platform and will become 'Oxford Events.' There will be a need for an OxTalks freeze. This was previously planned for Friday 14th November – a new date will be shared as soon as it is available (full details will be available on the Staff Gateway).
In the meantime, the OxTalks site will remain active and events will continue to be published.
If staff have any questions about the Oxford Events launch, please contact halo@digital.ox.ac.uk
Visit to Hampton Court Palace
This term’s Heritage Pathway Trip will be to the magnificent Hampton Court Palace, Henry VIII’s favoured residence on the banks of the River Thames. During our visit, we will meet with senior staff at Historic Royal Palaces, the charity responsible for curating the site. The day will include a bespoke tour of the palace with one of HRP’s senior curators, and a Q&A session with the organisation’s Research Manager. The trip will give attendees key insights into the curation of one of the world’s most iconic landmarks.
Tour guides:
Dr Marianne Wilson, Research Manager (Interim), Historic Royal Palaces
Dan Jackson, Head Buildings Curator, Historic Royal Palaces
Places are strictly limited and are allocated on a first-come-first-served basis. We will be travelling by coach which will pick us up at 08:45 outside the Radcliffe Humanities Building.
