Dance until late at their ‘disco in a box’, courtesy of Vintage Mobile Disco who will DJ from their sound system within a repurposed old laundry truck. The Space Merchants will host screenings of fantastical sci-fi TV episodes from the 1960s, 80s and 90s, inspired by the Joseph Cornell exhibition. Other delights include Cornell inspired collage-making, led by artist Kate Crossley and a cosmic salon hosted by the Royal Astronomical Society, plus ballet dancing, glitter makeovers and more to be revealed on the night.
