The Ivy Soho Brasserie will host a special dinner to celebrate the birthday of William Blake, poet, artist, and visionary, who was born and lived on the same street as the restaurant, Broadwick (formerly Broad) Street.

Blake’s creative legacy will be honoured through art, poetry, music, and a distinctly Soho spirit, blending culture, conversation, and exceptional food. Blake Society secretary, Stephen Pritchard, will give a talk on Blake’s London and Blake himself will be brought to life through poems and letters performed by Toby Pritchard, star of Albion, Awake!
