Museum of East Dorset: Home: Gypsy and Traveller lives in Dorset
An exhibition in partnership with Kushti Bok and Dorset History Centre exploring where and how Dorset-based Gypsies and Travellers have lived in the past, what "home" means to these communities, and how the nature of home has changed over the last century. Expect to see archival material from Dorset History Centre, contributions from Kushti Bok including wooden scale models of traditional Gypsy wagons and soil samples from historic Dorset settlements, and objects that reflect both historic and contemporary experiences of Gypsy and Traveller life. The exhibition also features oral histories, allowing visitors to hear directly from people with lived experience.
