History lovers are invited to explore the Ashmolean after hours as the museum hosts an evening of music, food and art.

The extended hours will give visitors a chance to admire the Raphael's drawings exhibition, on display until September 2, while also enjoying music and bars serving food and drink.

And for those feeling inspired there will also be a talk at 6pm by artist Martin Beek, who will give an introduction to ipad drawing. Tickets for this event are £10/£9 and booking is required.

Doors will be open from 5pm until 8pm next Friday. To book visit Ashmolean.org or call 01865 278 112.
