A new co-curated and book tie-in exhibition on Beatrix Potter which features unique materials from varied collections.
In this new co-curated and book tie-in exhibition, familiar Beatrix Potter themes and topics will be explored from new angles, and light is cast on more uncharted corners of her imagination through objects and artworks sometimes little seen from our own collection and from others around the world.
Coinciding with co-curator Dr Penny Bradshaw’s new book of the same title, the exhibition is a fresh take on a retrospective view of Potter’s career across multiple areas. With interest for adults and activities for kids, we invite all the ages to explore the life and work of Beatrix Potter like never before.
The exhibition will be accompanied by a range of events across the year, many set here in the museum exploring themes and events in Potter’s life in even more depth.
