European Night of Museums called off because of the pandemic returns

European Night of Museums called off because of the pandemic returns.

Art fans are in for a treat tonight, as the annual European Night of Museums returns after last year’s event was called off, because of the coronavirus pandemic.  Museums and other cultural venues have been hit hard by the closures and restrictions of the past year.

Joining Julian Worricker to discuss this and other issues are Adaobi Tricia Nwaubani, a Nigerian novelist and journalist; and Roger Garside, a British author, former diplomat and capital markets adviser.
