Memorial Event for Will Goss Hicks

Sevenoaks man, Second Lieutenant Will Goss Hicks died in France on 3 July 1917. We wanted to mark the date in a significant way so we have arranged for an art workshop and singing workshop for students from the school where he was head teacher and a concert with those students in the church where he worshipped.

Artist Jane Churchill will lead an art workshop in the morning on 3 July 2017 which will be followed by a singing workshop led by Apollo5, five professional singers from the world renowned group  Voces8 . Students will then perform a concert with Apollo5 in St Nicholas' Church in Sevenoaks at 1.15pm against a backdrop of stunning pictures of our highly-acclaimed exhibition which has now be enjoyed by thousands of people from all over the UK and the world.

Do join us on Monday 3 July from 1.15 - 2.30pm at St Nicholas' Church, Sevenoaks, for a moving tribute to a much-loved Sevenoaks WW1 soldier.

There is still time to visit "Echoes Across the Century" at Guildhall Art Gallery open every day until 16 July, entry is free.
