Oxford Events, the new replacement for OxTalks, will launch on 16th March. From now until the launch of Oxford Events, new events cannot be published or edited on OxTalks while all existing records are migrated to the new platform. The existing OxTalks site will remain available to view during this period.
From 16th, Oxford Events will launch on a new website: events.ox.ac.uk, and event submissions will resume. You will need a Halo login to submit events. Full details are available on the Staff Gateway.
The Jaipur Literature Festival (JLF) comes to Oxford for the very first time, with a special session hosted by the Oxford India Centre for Sustainable Development.
We are pleased to welcome Malvika Singh, publisher of Seminar and author of “Saris of Memory”, for a conversation that weaves together questions of aesthetics, identity, and politics through the lens of India’s most iconic garment. Drawing on her decades of engagement with publishing, public life, and cultural institutions, Singh will reflect on how textiles—and the sari in particular—carry stories of India’s historical transitions and contemporary realities.
This event will be of particular interest to those in South Asian studies, gender and cultural studies, design and material culture, politics, and history, but all are welcome.
