Canon Gregory Platten of Lichfield Cathedral leads the festival evensong at Pusey House chapel. The lesson will be read by sculptor Alexander ‘Sandy’ Stoddart

Pusey House in St Giles was opened in 1884 as a memorial to Edward Bouverie Pusey, Regius Professor of Hebrew and Canon of Christ Church, who was for 40 years a figurehead of the Oxford Movement, a movement of high church members of the Church of England. Its chapel, designed by Temple Moore and decorated by Ninian Comper, is known as a fine example of Gothic design.

The event is free and no booking is required.
