SUMMARY:Exhibition - Abingdon 1945
DESCRIPTION:2025 marks the 80th anniversary of the end of World War 2\, and our exhibition looks back at Abingdon in war and peace in 1945. Learn how the war impacted the lives of local people through food shortages\, the threat of air raids\, war work in the industries\, and the influx of evacuees and armed forces personnel. Take a closer look at the roles of women and how they experienced the war and the post-war period. The exhibition also looks at the changes the peace brought\, how people celebrated VE and VJ Day\, what happened when the soldiers returned home\, and how a decision taken in 1945 changed the face of the town with the coming of the ‘Atomics’. \nFrom 4th October to 23rd December 2025\n \n \nPlease join us for the final talk of the Museum’s WWII history series ‘1945 -The End of the Third Reich’ presented by BBC Radio Nottingham’s History Advisor Gareth Howell .\n \nPlease book your tickets at the Museum Reception\nor online at https://www.ticketsource.co.uk/abingdon-museum  \nFriday 7th November at 7pm.\nLocation: The Roysse Room\, Bridge Street\, Abingdon.

SUMMARY:IOTA with support TBC
DESCRIPTION:IOTA (Sally Barker\, Anna Ryder & Marion Fleetwood) leaves audiences dazzled\, with phrases such as ‘luscious’ and ‘beautifully crafted’ tripping off people’s tongues at the end of a performance.\n\nAll three write the songs\, sing and play everything on their debut CD ‘0 YEH YEH !’. It has been described by Nigel Schofield [Tykes News] as “Three voices that seamlessly combine in rich\, fulfilling harmonies with a wealth of instruments to draw upon and create a rich\, varied\, satisfying sound that simply makes you want to smile.”\n\nSally Barker (vocal\, guitar & percussion) sang to millions as Tom Jones’ finalist on The Voice UK but the singer-songwriter has entertained for years as a member of revered fern-folk group The Poozies\, of the re-formed Fotheringay and as a solo artist supporting Bob Dylan\, Robert Plant and Richard Thompson.\n\nAnna Ryder (vocal\, keys\, accordion\, guitar\, banjo & French horn) is a musical dynamo; an original and inventive singer-songwriter with a musical style that spans an array of genres. Amongst others Anna has worked with Fairport Convention\, Eddi Reader\, Julianne Regan (All About Eve).\n\nThe blazingly dynamic Marion Fleetwood (vocal\, fiddle\, cello\, guitar & percussion) is a highly respected multi-instrumentalist and singersongwriter. Best known as a member of TRADarrr and as a former member of Colvin Quarmby.\n\n“Three witty\, intelligent and above all superbly musical women.  All great solo performers in their own right. Together\, beautiful harmonies and quality songwriting\, backed up classy multi-instrumentalists.” Phil Beer {Show Of Hands]\n\n“When the planets align\, great things happen. Now three stars have!”\nSimon Nicol [Fairport Convention]\n\n“Une cascade de serenite” Audience member [St Maurice-Crillat\, France]\n\nDoors and bar 7.00pm\, music 7.15pm
