About

What comes to mind when we think about the ‘Swinging Sixties’? Is it miniskirts and pop music, street protest, or the Pill? Do we remember rebellious youth and ‘the generation gap’, or think nostalgically of a time of full employment, buoyant wages, and high rates of home ownership? In truth, the sixties was about all of these things.

Join public historian and Old Treasury Building director Margaret Anderson as she explores life in the 1960s and asks did Victoria really ‘swing’ in the 1960s?

The talk will be followed by afternoon tea.
