Russell-Cotes museum and gallery, Bournemouth
The society's recent lecture on the Highlights of the Russell-Cotes museum, and gallery given by James Taylor, a local historian, reminded us of the treasures of this wonderful house in our local area. It is a real pleasure to be able to fully visit the Russell-Cotes Museum which has now reopened. In addition to the permanent exhibits there are two new exhibitions: - Hidden Highlights - Life in Lockdown and John Thomas - the Japanese portfolio of a Victorian decorator.
