October Monthly Meeting

Our next monthly meeting is on Wednesday 16th October from 6.30 to 8.30pm, in the Upper Vestry Hall of St George's Bloomsbury.

Behind the scenes at the Museum

Ever wondered what goes on behind the scenes at the museum, and how major exhibitions such as Hollywood Costume or Christian Dior are put together? Pam (who is Collections Documentation & Procedures Manager at the V&A) will be talking about the work that goes into putting together public exhibitions, from deciding on an exhibition schedule to choosing the objects, mounting them and getting the exhibition open on time. In particular, we'll take an in-depth look at how the Christion Dior: Designer of Dreams exhibition was put together.
