SUMMARY:Stories of Home
DESCRIPTION:Stories of Home: Portraits of Our Community\nWeston Museum\nSaturday 6 December 2025 – Saturday 14 March 2026 (The Museum is CLOSED on a Sunday and Monday\, as well as closing for Christmas between Friday 19 December 2025 and Saturday 3 January 2026) \nA new photographic exhibition at Weston Museum!\n\nA new photographic exhibition opening at Weston Museum offers a vibrant snapshot of life in Weston-super-Mare today. Open from 6 December 2025 to 14 March 2026\, Stories of Home: Portraits of our Community brings together a compelling series of self-portraits and personal reflections that illuminate what it means to call Weston-super-Mare ‘home’.\n\nAhead of the exhibition\, members of the community were invited to take part in photography and filming sessions. Stepping in front of the camera\, participants were encouraged to look directly into the lens for a photographic self-portrait and to share their thoughts on the idea of ‘home’\, and what Weston means to them.\n\nThe project captured 120 self-portraits\, each offering a candid glimpse into the people and everyday stories that shape the town. Participants were also given the opportunity to record short audio reflections\, some of which will feature in a film for the exhibition.\n\nVisitors to the exhibition will also be able to contribute their own stories at open sessions taking place at Weston Museum on Saturday 10 January\, Saturday 14 February\, and Thursday 5 March 2026. Visitors can have their photographic self-portrait taken\, share their thoughts of ‘home’ and see their image added to a display on the community wall.\n\nStories of Home: Portraits of Our Community has been created in partnership with the South West Heritage Trust\, Weston Museum and Weston-super-Mare Town Council\, with support from a range of community groups.\n\nEntry to the exhibition is free.

You’ll also get to learn about the history of textiles with textile crafter and historical educator Katherine Bell and have a go at a choice of textile techniques including rigid heddle weaving\, inkle weaving\, disc braiding and lucet braiding. \nEach workshop lasts 45 minutes and there are refreshments available throughout\, of a choice of drink and a sweet treat. \nThis session is designed for adults and children to work together\, so it’s a great chance for parents or grandparents to share an interest together and both learn a new craft. Children need to be at least 9 years old\, but attendees don’t require any previous experience of the craft\, even complete beginners are welcome.\nTickets cost £15 per attendee and include both workshops\, plus materials and refreshments.
