The Institute's very own Birkbeck Singers' recent performances have not only been immensely enjoyable, but have also raised £300 for their chosen charity - the Ipswich Iceni Project.
Congratulations to musical director Be Bird and her enthusiastic and accomplished choir.
The Singers have already been booked for a concert in the Ipswich Arts Association series of Town Lectures and Concerts 2014. They will be performing at 1pm on 10th April at the Museum Street Methodist Church (Admission free).
