This is part of a whole series of events devoted to Sun Ra at Nottingham Contemporary.

They have assembled an amazing Sun Ra exhibition running from now until January. It features some great items loaned from John Corbett and the University of Chicago Library archives - the first time these have ever been lent out for exhibition. Graham Lock and Christopher Trent have lent Saturn LP sleeves for the exhibition, and they have many different Sun Ra tracks available to hear on headphones, courtesy of Sun Ra LLC. The room as a whole is beautifully laid out, a real tribute to Sun Ra.
