Exhibition Now on Tour!
We are happy to announce the schedule of our new touring exhibition!
Mark your calendars and tell your friends!
After a brilliant launch during our Eighth East Festival Weekend on the Waterfront at UCS Ipswich, our brand new Touring Exhibition is ready to hit the road! Based on local oral histories, this new exhibition explores the social and landscape histories of how the members of the 8th USAAF and the locals of East Anglia fought together, played together, worked together and sometimes even fell in love.
