This special display is timed to coincide with the annual Bridgwater St. Matthew’s Fair and reveals the lives of Travellers, as told by older members of the south-west Traveller community. It brings together photographs by Ted Franklin, recorded interviews and a book produced by MA Museum Studies students from Bournemouth University.

Join us on the 28th at 6pm when Yvette and Avril will talk about the lives of the Travellers depicted in the exhibition and discuss why it continues to matter that Travellers’ voices are heard and listened to in 2023.
