‘Home is where the legends are’ is a Centre for Arthurian Studies project funded by the Bangor University Fund, the Vice-chancellor’s initiative, which supports areas of strategic priority for the university in the 140th anniversary year of Bangor University (1884).
The aims of the project are to highlight the central role played by Arthurian and Celtic Studies in the local area around Bangor University, in the foundation of the university library at the inception of the university, and in shaping scholarship, teaching and further research in these fields.
The project is grounded in Bangor University’s Archives and Special Collections, including a celebration of the Flintshire Harries Arthurian collection.
This online exhibit is complemented by the Centre’s 2024 Arthurian Lecture series, organised under the aegis of the 140th anniversary of Bangor University, and an educational programme for primary schools in the local area for the New Creative Curriculum in Wales, conducted by Prof. Radulescu with Gillian Brownson, local storyteller and performance artist, and Dr Maria Hayes, fine artist.
