Series of Films
In July and August 2020 four of the directors of The Archbald Knox Forum created an introduction and 6 films on subjects about or related to Knox.
We are extremely grateful to Culture Vannin for making a grant available to cover the cost of the filming and also to James Proudfoot for producing the films.
The series of films are based on talks given during the 2018/19 exhibition at the Manx Museum plus new information and subjects that have come to light since.
