Something magical is happening to celebrate the 20th anniversary of the publication of the first book in the Harry Potter series, Harry Potter and the Philosopher’s Stone.
The British Library is presenting a new exhibition – opening in the fall of 2017.
From medieval descriptions of dragons and griffins – to the origin of the philosopher’s stone – readers will be taken on a journey to the heart of J.K. Rowling’s Potter stories.
There’ll be a range of wizarding books and objects, and the exhibition will combine centuries-old British Library treasures – with original material from Bloomsbury Publishing – and the archives of J.K. Rowling.
The exhibition opens in October 2017 and runs until February, 2018.
