What you’ll do

Join Wellcome Collection staff in a workshop discovering how garlic has been used as food, medicine and for protection throughout history.

We’ll share stories and recipes from the collections and you’ll be able to make and taste garlic dips and chutneys. We’ll provide all the materials and ingredients.

This is a relaxed event. There will be a chill-out room with low lighting, comfortable seating, cushions, mats and space to move around and be yourself.

This workshop is not suitable for anyone with a garlic allergy.
