Curiosity Shop: looking with older eyes
Royal Albert Memorial Museum and Art Gallery
When: 09 October 2018 to 09 December 2018
Where: Cafe at RAMM
Time: 10am - 5pm
Suitable for: Any age
A celebration of art by older people in Exeter City Council housing around the city, inspired by close-up encounters with museum objects, from birds and fossils to African sculpture. Residents worked with a digital artist to create vibrant, sometimes playful artworks incorporating images of artefacts. The Curiosity Shop project is a collaboration between council services to bring isolated people together around new cultural experiences.
In partnership with Exeter City Council housing.
