New Season at John Bunyan Museum
On 11am on Tuesday 20th February, the John Bunyan Museum, Mill Street reopened for the 2024 season.
As a result of two floods, 2023 was a difficult year for the museum with a shortened season not knowing when we might reopen or need to close again for redecoration. We were so lucky that neither flood affected the collections or displays, “just” the museum’s foyer and shop, and church offices. We now have a new look shop with lots of items to suit a range of budgets and a redecorated entrance ready to welcome back our visitors.
Following a successful volunteer recruitment morning, we have lots of enthusiastic new volunteers to join our dedicated team welcoming visitors from near and far. The museum wouldn’t exist without our volunteers, keeping the museum open, leading groups and schools, and working behind the scenes to care for the collections and promote the museum. Volunteering for the museum is also a great way of meeting new people and learning and developing new skills.
If you are interested in volunteering at the museum and would like to find out more, please contact us at curator@bunyanmeeting.co.uk 01234 270303 or on our website www.bunyanmeeting.co.uk/get-involved, or have a chat to one of the volunteers on duty at the museum.
John Bunyan Museum is open from Tuesday 20th February 2024, and continue Tuesday to Saturday 11.00am – 4.00pm (closed Good Friday) and admission is free.
