The Captain Smith statue in Lichfield

Lichfield Library will mark the 100th anniversary of the sinking of the Titanic with two events.

This evening (April 3) at 7.30pm there will be a talk by the British Titanic Society on The Life of Captain Smith – a fascinating insight into the life of the ship’s commander and the story behind his statue in Beacon Park.

On April 12 at 7.30pm you can enjoy a presentation by the History Wardrobe Company and follow the famous dress designer Lady Lucy ‘Lucile’ Duff-Gordon during the traumatic events of that fateful night in April 1912.

Tickets for both events and are priced £5 and include refreshments.

For more information on either of these events or to book your place, contact Lichfield Library on 01543 510700.
