Museum Cuts Entry Price For Final Weekend

Saturday, 28 December 2019 10:08

Entry to Jersey Museum is just £1 this weekend.

The reduced entry fee today, tomorrow and Monday marks the end of its Handmade Jersey - A Work in Progress exhibition.

Curator Louise Downie hopes people take advantage of the post-Christmas offer:

"We just wanted to give islanders who haven't yet had the opportunity to see it for just £1. Of course, with that they also get entry into the rest of the museum, the Victorian House and the Story of Jersey as well."

Jersey Heritage did a similar thing last year, cutting entry to 80 pence for the end of its 80s exhibition, and had people queuing out the doors.

Handmade Jersey celebrates the talents of local amateur arts and craftspeople, with some of the work lent by islanders and pieces that have never been on display before.

A new exhibition about immigration called People Make Jersey will open in March.
