We can all be inspired by literary sources and Coventry Cathedral is no different! Throughout the year, the Cathedral will be drawing inspiration from all things books and reading. 

Children’s film screenings, Let’s Watch and Make, will be themed around film adaptations of classic books, combining storytelling with creative activity.

The Cathedral will also be launching an Anti-Social Book Club, offering visitors the chance to read a book of their own choice, at their own pace, in peaceful surroundings.

All February half-term activities will be themed around reading and crafts, with plans to include a children’s book swap and a dedicated reading corner for everyone to enjoy.

Keep a look out for more events and opportunities as the year progresses via the Coventry Cathedral What's On Page.
