Simon recently flew to New York to meet with Jos A. Smith, who illustrated Erica Jong's 1980 book, 'Witches'. The museum will host an exhibition of Smith's original water colours for the book, when we re-open in the Spring of 2015. Joe will also be coming over for the launch of the exhibition, details of which will be posted in due course. Several of the images from the show will be available to buy as signed prints too, to help raise money for the museum.

I fell in love with this book when I first encountered it in the library at college. For me it is still the most beautifully illustrated witchcraft related book.
I think the artwork in the book is fabulous and certainly inspired me 30 or so years ago.
