The Peace Museum supporting this year’s Street Choirs Festival & was the first to offer SWAG for our bags.
If you have any time throughout the weekend, or if you arrive before Friday then please pay them a visit.
The Peace Museum explores the history and the often-untold stories of peace, peacemakers, social reform and peace movements. Since the museum was founded in 1994, they’ve been collecting items which tell the stories of peace in many different forms. Their 16,000-object collection is made up of banners, personal objects, campaign materials and artworks donated by people and organisations all over the world. It is truly unique in that it is the only accredited museum of its kind in the UK.
Opening Hours- Spring/Summer hours will be Thursdays – Sundays, between 10-4pm.
