The Last of the Wonders
Wednesday 23rd December
10am – 1pm
Buxton Museum and Art Gallery
have you stared into ancient forests? |
Have you visited the Wonders before?
If not, why not make this your first visit! If you have wandered through
the galleries before, join us for a last visit before the Exhibition is closed for
a shakedown and a refit.
have you growled with the Bear? |
What do you like?
What have you relished over the years?
Or what has made
your skin creep!
or seen the hungry hyena? |
The bear and the beasts
and the bones?
A grinning mermaid in a glass case?
A delicate Blue John window.
Memories of plague and the Eyam Cross.
Roman treasures and the wonder of
polished black Ashford Marble?
Join us for a morning of tales and memories
Listen to old tales from the Peaks.
Share your own stories with us, draw a card
to keep and leave us notes, comments and pictures in our “Book of the Wonders”.
