Transient Treasures

by Ekaterina Sheath

This event has passed

Illustrator Ekaterina Sheath presents an innovative exhibition and explores Craven Museum’s unique ephemera collection, challenging our interpretation of an item’s ‘value’ and how this changes over time. Bespoke illustrations accompany the ephemera objects on display, seeking to bring to life the stories hidden behind each item.

Whether it is tales of hidden mice or social dances for mill workers, Craven Museum is full of stories.

Gallery Opening Times
Monday – Saturday, 9.30am – 4.30pm
