Please see information below from Elmbridge Museum about this day.
Lydia gave us a talk this year which many members enjoyed!
Hello,
To commemorate the 80th anniversary of VE Day and VJ Day, Elmbridge Museum is putting on an exhibition ‘Echoes of War’ from 4th February to 27th February 2026. To support the display, we have commissioned a sound artist to produce a replica Morrison shelter. Laid upon this will be a tablecloth with badges. When touched these will play a local story.
On Saturday 10th January, we are hosting a stitching workshop and inviting local residents to drop in and help us construct this ‘talking tablecloth’. Please see the attached poster. The event is held at the Weybridge Hub. If you’d like to attend, please just turn up on the day. No booking is required.
Best wishes
Lydia
