Walking tour of Jewish Bloombsbury    

Experience Jewish Bloomsbury. Contextualising Leonard Woolf, this walking tour takes you through the heartland of the Bloomsbury Circle where you can discover the haunts of Benjamin Disraeli, Gertrude Stein, Karl Marx, Lord Duveen and many other Jewish intellectuals who frequented the old British Library and the British Museum. Find out about the role of Jews in the foundation of University College, London and the stars who rose to fame at the Slade School of Art such as David Bomberg, Mark Gertler and the great poet Isaac Rosenberg.

The walk will be led by Clive Bettington who brings the past to life through his anecdotes and fascinating stories.

The walk starts from the Royal National Hotel at 3.15 pm sharp. 40 places only.  This tour is now sold out but there will be another one on the 25 March.
