About this Event
Mary Anning Rocks present the unveiling ceremony of Mary Anning's statue, to be unveiled by Professor Alice Roberts at 3pm on Saturday 21 May 2022.
Build up will be from 2pm onwards, so please make sure you get to Lyme Regis in plenty of time to park and make your way to the unveiling site.
Evie and the local school children who won the art competition to help design the statue will also be helping Alice with the unveiling.
There will be speeches from some of our amazing patrons, including Tracy Chevalier, Dr Dean Lomax, Dr Anjana Khatwa, Dr Tori Herridge and Professor Hugh Torrens.
This is a free event, no tickets required, we just need to know numbers for now.
The ceremony will occur at the junction between Long Entry and Gun Cliff Walk out towards Black Ven, Lyme Regis.
