At Bury Museum + Archives we are researching an exhibition which will form
part of our HLF funded project Cotton Threads. The exhibition will be on
at Bury Art Gallery later in the year, for a period of 14 weeks.
Predominantly, it is intended to be an archives exhibition, supported by
museum objects and paintings.
This is the first time the service has displayed archives on this scale
and I would be interested to know of any archives exhibitions that are
currently being displayed (North West England would be helpful!). I would
like to get ideas about the amount and balance of material that works well
in a gallery space. Any experiences of what works and what doesn't are
gratefully recieved.
