The Museum of East Dorset in Wimborne invites locals to contribute personal items for an exhibition opening in October. This showcase will highlight the stories behind everyday belongings, such as recipe books, toys, and photographs, aiming to connect across generations. Curator Millie Lake emphasizes the significance of these objects in preserving memories and celebrating personal histories. The museum encourages submissions by August 3, and selected items will be displayed in the museum and online. Lake aims to challenge the notion that only specific artifacts belong in museums, highlighting the value of everyday treasures. For more details, visit the museum’s website.
