DESCRIPTION:Tuesday 21 May to Saturday 25 May 10-5 (10-1pm Saturday)\n\nFr
 ee Exhibition (St Mary's Church\, 30 Bourne St\, London SW1W 8JJ)\n\n"Vest
 ment and Flower Festival: The Play's the Thing"\n\nSt Mary's Bourne Street
  will explore the theme of "liturgy as theatre" as we host a Festival of F
 lowers and Vestments to celebrate our 150th anniversary.\n\nThe church wil
 l be cleared of pews and filled with spectacular flower displays alongside
  an exhibition of historic floral-themed vestments\, which are worn by the
  clergy throughout the religious year. These include sumptuous brocades\, 
 silks\, satins\, gold-embroidered textiles and rare pre-Reformation garmen
 ts from the 15th century.\n\nThe festival will examine how theatre\, with 
 its playful language of colour\, costume and metaphor\, informs our richly
  expressive Anglo-Catholic services.\nIt will also convey how flowers\, fr
 om lily-of-the-valley to roses and hyssop\, allude to Biblical teachings a
 nd express a profound sense of the sacred.\nTuesday 21 to Friday 24 May 10
 am-5pm\; Saturday 25 May 10am-1pm.
