HISTORY fans are being invited to have their say on a new exhibition at The Commandery in Worcester.
They will be able to take part in a short survey which encourages respondents to share their local military interests as well as how the new Worcestershire Soldier Gallery at The Commandery can meet their needs.
Visit form.typeform.com/to/v3M9DWrs to complete the survey.
Residents are also encouraged to head to a number of creative consultations taking place over the coming months.
Dr John Paddock, curator of the Mercian Regiment Museum, said: “In the coming months we want to provide Worcestershire residents and those interested in military history an opportunity to have their say on how our new exhibition at The Commandery can reflect their interests.
“It’s a great moment to find out what people enjoy in our current exhibition at Worcester City Art Gallery and Museum and think about how they’d like to see and learn about Worcester’s military history in future. We encourage people to complete the survey – it takes just seven minutes – or look out for our team at events across Worcester this spring and summer.”
The Worcestershire Soldier Gallery is a brand-new exhibition of Worcester’s regimental displays, bringing together the collections of the Mercian Regiment Museum and the Worcestershire Yeomanry Museum.
The outcomes from the creative consultations and the views of Worcestershire people,will feed into the next stage application to the National Lottery Heritage Fund and, ultimately, the final display.
