Graham, who is from Royston, will talk about the early sci-fi/fantasy novel and explain how the town's astronaut got on.
As part of Royston Arts Festival, Graham will also be running a workshop on the same day from 2pm to 4.30pm, with pre-booked tickets available for £5 from the museum's website.
Graham said: "All you need to do is bring paper, a pen and yourself. We all have stories to tell!"
