SUMMARY:‘Historic Building Mythbusting’ - A talk by Dr.James Wright of Triskele Heritage
DESCRIPTION:From June 2024 onwards\, James Wright of Triskele Heritage will be setting off on a promotional book tour after the release of Historic Building Mythbusting – Uncovering Folklore\, History and Archaeology. He will be at Abingdon Museum on Thursday 12th September for a presentation lasting 45-60 minutes\, Q&A session\, and people will have the opportunity to pick up a signed copy of the book.  \nHe will give two talks at 12pm and 2pm in Abingdon Museum’s Kempster room (museum basement) on Thursday 12 September 2024. This floor is also accessible via lift. \n£10 per ticket. Booking essential as tickets limited to 20 for each talk.  \nPlease click here to book your ticket or visit https://www.ticketsource.co.uk/abingdon-museum \n  \nJames Wright is a regular on Channel 4’s The Great British Dig and on BBC Radio 4’s The Hidden History Of…; plus\, he has made appearances on documentaries such as Time Team (Channel 4)\, Mystic Britain (Smithsonian Channel)\, and Unearthed (Discovery Science). \nGo to any ancient building and there will be interesting\, exciting\, and romantic stories presented to the visitor. They are commonly believed and widely repeated – but are they really true? These stories include those of secret passages linking ancient buildings\, spiral staircases in castles giving advantage to right-handed defenders\, ship timbers used in the construction of buildings on land\, blocked doors in churches which are thought to keep the Devil out and claims to be the oldest pub in the city. \nJames Wright will explain the development of such myths and investigate the underlying truths behind them. Sometimes the realities hiding behind the stories are even more interesting\, romantic\, and exciting than the myth itself… \nThe speaker\, James Wright (Triskele Heritage)\, is an award winning buildings archaeologist. He has two decades professional experience of ferreting around in people’s cellars\, hunting through their attics and digging up their gardens. He hopes to find meaningful truths about how ordinary and extraordinary folk lived their lives in the mediaeval period. He is the author of the popular Mediaeval Mythbusting Blog

SUMMARY:Exhibition - ABINGDON’S OPPIDUM: trade and crafts in an Iron Age settlement
DESCRIPTION:For this summer we have put together another archaeological exhibition: ‘ABINGDON’S OPPIDUM: trade and crafts in an Iron Age Settlement’ from Saturday 6th July to Sunday 29th September 2024. \n‘Oppidum’ is a Latin word meaning ‘town’. Archaeologists apply the term to certain large Late Iron Age settlements\, often with defences around them\, in Britain and other parts of western and central Europe. These were not ordinary farming settlements. They often seem to have been involved in manufacturing goods and in trade\, and may also have been centres of power. Our exhibition looks at Iron Age life in the Abingdon oppidum\, the crafts its people practised\, the trade connections and the relationship with the landscape and other settlements in the area. \nFree Admission \nLocation: Sessions Gallery

SUMMARY:Exhibition: “Celebrating Abingdon Women in the Arts and Sciences”
DESCRIPTION:In our first exhibition for 2024 Abingdon Museum will be “Celebrating Abingdon Women in the Arts and Sciences”. It will highlight the lives of remarkable women\, some who lived in Abingdon and made major contributions to the cultural life of the town\, some who came from Abingdon and went out into the world to accomplish great things. In the visual arts they are Pat Russell and Janet Boulton\, who set up their own paper-making studio\, and Charlotte Hardcastle\, whose delicate and highly accurate botanical drawings are preserved in a New Zealand museum. Representing the written word they are Dorothy Richardson\, who wrote some of the first modernist novels\, and historian Agnes Baker\, who bridged literature and history by bringing local history to life through plays and pageants. Also from the field of history are Gabrielle Lambrick\, who researched the history of Abingdon Abbey in particular\, and was an important member of two societies dedicated to local history; Mieneke Cox\, who told the story of Abingdon through the museum displays and a series of books; and Marion Wenzel who was the curator of the Abbey Buildings and researched one of Abingdon’s most intriguing archaeological finds\, the Islamic Glass. Representing science is Mary Buckland\, née Morland\, who made important contributions to palaeontology\, particularly with her detailed drawings of fossils\, including those of Megalosaurus\, the first scientifically described dinosaur. \nIn telling the stories of these women we want to highlight the contributions women have made in all fields of endeavour\, but also emphasise their connection with Abingdon – something our town can be proud of. \n  \nLocation: Sessions Gallery (First Floor) \nFree Admission

SUMMARY:Heritage Open Days
DESCRIPTION:A swashbuckling Hollywood icon\, one of the founders of the Arts and Crafts Movement and the great English painter Turner have one thing in common: they all loved Abingdon-on-Thames. \nDouglas Fairbanks Junior dined frequently at The Crown and Thistle\, John Ruskin lived there some years earlier\, and the teenage JMW Turner sketched and painted views of Abingdon and the surrounding countryside.  These stories and how Sir Paul McCartney’s BAFTA award winning “Frogs Chorus” video came to be made in Thames Street will be explored during this year’s Heritage Open Days. \nThe Arts and Creativity theme of this year’s heritage festival will also showcase other gems such as the priceless medieval “Abingdon Missal” decorated by the monks of the Abbey of Abingdon\, which is now held in the Bodleian Library in Oxford. A major exhibition about the Missal will be held in the Abbey Buildings. \nThe town has been home to many famous artists\, actors\, writers\, sculptors and comedians\, all of whom have enriched our national life but whose stories are often untold.  The aim of this year’s Heritage Open Days is to unlock those stories and inspire our townsfolk and visitors with the creativity which Abingdon has encouraged. \nA full list of the events and exhibitions can be found on our website and will be published in leaflets available from early September.. The venues will include the medieval Abbey Buildings\, the Guildhall\, Christ’s Hospital Almshouses and several of the town’s other historic buildings and there will be a “Fab Ab” exhibition in the former H Samuels shop. Abingdon Artists will be helping people to explore painting\, Abingdon Flower Club will be displaying their work\, and Abingdon Drama Club will present a “Son et Lumiere” to celebrate the 70th anniversary of the Unicorn Theatre. On the Sunday there will a programme of guided walks. \nInformation and self-guided walk leaflets will be available all weekend\, from our Market Place information stall.
