Ten Island Stories
A beaded black taffeta evening jacket from the 1930s and a Brownies patchwork quilt of 130 woollen squares created between 1978 and 1991 are among ten diverse objects from the Museum’s collection, chosen for an exhibition training exercise in which Museum volunteers learnt how to research and display artefacts.
