Among the exhibition include the Mighty Wurlitzer Experience, featuring Chris Barber, the museums resident organist and director of music.

Here visitors can find out about the history of the instrument and watch a short silent film with Wurlitzer accompaniment.

Chris will also play a selection of music from stage and screen together with tracks from his recent CD’s to the back-drop of images

Street instruments will be played on the law, where people can enjoy refreshments outside or inside the River View café.

There is also a small exhibition outlining the move from the nearby St George’s Church and highlights of ten years on the present site.

Children’s activities include an art table and gallery trail. The day is meant for the local community to enjoy a heritage attraction in the area.
