400th Anniversary OA Events 2019 Dates for your diary
2019 is the Quatercentenary of Edward Alleyn’s Foundation of his ‘College of God’s Gift’ at Dulwich. Our objective throughout this historic year is to renew OA ties to the College with a varied programme of events. We hope that as many of you from across the generations will want to be involved. The centrepiece will be a Festival week from 24 to 29 June , and in particular our OA Evening on Thursday 27 June . The campus will be open solely for OAs and their guests from 4pm onwards, and it is intended that you and your partners will be involved in seminars and masterclasses held for pupils and led by OA experts and stars in their field, meeting with staff and ex-staff and ending the evening alongside your peers in a party celebration. If you have not been to the College for a while, this is very much the perfect opportunity to come back. We will begin the anniversary celebrations on 31 January with a Sports Dinner celebrating Dulwich Sport at the RAC Club. On 11 May an Edward Alleyn ‘Founder’s Ball’ will be held at the College. Alongside current parents, this major celebration promises to be an exciting and memorable evening for you all. Given the busy calendar of events the Quatercentenary will wrap up as in recent years with the Alleyn Club Dinner and AGM on Friday November 1 . We look forward to being in touch with further details of these and all other events and to welcoming you back to the College.
