FASS Academics Taking Part in The 2019 Imagine Festival

The OU is taking part in the 2019 Imagine Festival. It's the fifth year of the Imagine! Festival of Ideas and Politics where politics and the arts combine to bring you a unique way of imagining the future of the great city of Belfast.

On Tuesday 19 February, the Festival was launched by the Lord Mayor of Belfast, Councillor Deirdre Hargey, and Dr Frances Morton spoke about the OU's contribution, alongside other festival participants.

The Festival will run from Monday 25 - Sunday 31 March at venues across Belfast. For the full programme of events, please click here.
