🤔 Soooo hypothetically...if your loved ones (including pets) were already safe and you only had time to save one object from a fire in your house, what would it be & why?

We held our first Community Workshop in yesterday where we discussed a very serious & important issue first - how to make a "proper" cuppa tea! We also thought about group work and communication too but don't worry if you missed it - just drop in to the next workshop on Thurs 20th June (The Chapel Framework Knitters Museum)

🔹 Stories and Objects is a new project supporting local people to share and celebrate their diverse identities and heritage. In relaxed and fun workshops, you'll have the opportunity to create a unique museum exhibition featuring ordinary personal objects and stories from the local community which will open to the public Summer-Winter 2019.

🔹 Supported by Nottingham Trent University and local museums, the project is free to anyone living/working in the areas around:
Ruddington Village Museum
Bassetlaw Museum

Try something new and different - Socialise in your community - Learn a new skill - Share your story in your own voice! No skills/experience needed. Contact us for info or drop into a workshop near you. We hope you can join us 😀
