|Recurring Event (See all)

One event on Sat 22 April 2023, at 2:00 pm

What stories can a bird egg collection tell? When you peer beneath the shell there are fascinating stories of what our world was like 100 years ago, what is gone, and what remains. They open the cracks to introduce the people who collected them, and why. Then there are the unexpected hidden tales quietly waiting to be unscrambled. Join Kim Bagot-Hiller and peer beneath the shell of the unique bird egg collection and hear the fascinating stories they tell. A temporary exhibition will in run the month of April. Light refreshments available.
