The Museum:

From rare priceless marvels of the natural and scientific worlds like Dodo Bones or speculum to the intriguing beauty of McDonald's Happy Meal Toys, from old master etchings to prison inmates & mad women's doodles, occultists paintings and pop art prints, the horrors and wonders of nature, two headed kittens and living coral. By placing the rare and the beautiful on the same plane as the commonplace, banal & amusing this museum seeks not to educate but to subvert, to show the world not in a grain of sand, but in a Hackney basement. The Museum has no overreaching aim beyond the theft of it's visitors time and the hope that it will provide amusement by return & hopes to fill the vacuum between what the establishment elite believes is worthy of worship & what exists in the world. The Cocktail Bar:

Collectors, researchers & absintheurs — Allison Crawbuck & Rhys Everett opened the Society's Cocktail Bar in 2016, bringing with them a shared passion for the mysterious world of Absinthe & the macabre. Together, they have curated the UK's most extensive list of premium quality, traditional absinthes & curious cocktails to pair. Hidden within the wonderfully strange, beautiful and bizarre world of Viktor Wynd's Museum of Curiosities, our speakeasy styled cocktail bar provides a drinking experience like no other. With a rotating menu of eclectically curated cocktails, each drink is inspired by the marvel and oddities of our venue's decor. The History:

The Last Tuesday Society is a ‘Pataphysical organization founded by William James at Harvard in the 1870s and presently run by The Chancellor, Mr.Viktor Wynd with the aid of The Fellows of The Society. It is devoted to exploring and furthering the esoteric, literary and artistic aspects of life in London and beyond. www.thelasttuesdaysociety.org

Taxidermy winged kittens, a two-and-a-half foot leg bone from a woolly mammoth described as an 'Irish giant', Queen Victoria's knickers and even his own pants are among the 442 lots being put up for auction.

Museum of Curiosities, Fine Art & UnNatural History, in Hackney, London, was forced to close when the pandemic broke out last year which was devastating for owner Viktor Wynd.

Hello! I am trying to find an email with a link for the dragon lecture taking place right now. I paid for two tickets and received conformation from eventbright but never received anything from you. Could you help please?
If I already have a ticket for tonight but cannot attend, can I watch it tomorrow?
Some excellent material here – the high-light, in my view, being 'The Lady's Present', a new story by Hélène Lavelle, beautifully written of course, utterly Decadent, with a twist of Gothic flavouring, wantonly cruel, outrageously erotic, leavened with dark Sadeian wit. A fine advertisement for her recent novel, ‘The Rites of Ecstasy’ (also from Black S**t Books). Definitely one for the connoisseurs! https://blackscatbooks.com/2021/04/07/spring-fever-2/...
Just to say, many, many thanks for the wonderful talks and speakers :) i'm learning so much all the time - such contrast - last night MR James stories and tonight all things Nightingale ###
