A terrific twelve months

It’s been a great year here at the Museum.

March saw us win the Guardian Family-friendly Museum of the Year Award. In the summer holidays we were busier than anyone can remember. This month we were runners-up in the Chad Business Awards Best Team category. Out two in-house exhibitions - Our Local Larder and Mansfield Metal Box – have both been very well-received. School sessions are as popular as ever despite the introduction of a charge.

At the moment we are coming over all festive, preparing Christmas trails, planning holiday ArtBeat sessions and getting ready for our sixth Christmas Market.

At the same time we’re already plotting a course for next year, when the Dickens Bi-centennial and the Olympics are at the top of our agenda. Stay tuned!
