[Vwoolf] Dalloway Day UK events

[Sarah M. Hall]

 Glad you asked this, Frances, although simultaneously dismayed that word hasn't reached this list (for which I blame myself).

All the DallowayDay events we know about in the UK are on the VWSGB Events page: http://www.virginiawoolfsociety.org.uk/events

Including the VWSGB DallowayDay on Sat 15 June. 


First the short version of that, for anyone inclined to tweet it:

The #VWSGB #DallowayDay 2019 theme is ‘Queering Dalloway’
Sat 15 June 2019: join us for Bloomsbury walk, discussions on Adapting Mrs Dalloway and Queer Bloomsbury, refreshments & book signings.
