Annual memorial lecture – Re-presenting the Holocaust by James Bulgin

Our annual lecture was held in the Golf Hotel on Saturday 12th November 2022 attended by an enthusiastic crowd of about 70 visitors. James Bulgin, head of content at the new Holocaust exhibition in the Imperial War Museum in London, talked us through the reasons, design and application of the new displays. Much thought had gone into the way that the exhibits were displayed and the special text and fonts used. The attendees were most appreciative of his knowledge of the subject and the way in which he and his team decided to display this divisive subject.

A raffle was held during the interval whilst everyone had the opportunity to take the refreshments offered and approximately £120 was raised towards the museum running costs.

Attached pictures show James giving his talk and some of the enthralled listeners.

Thanks go to Annette and her Friends team for organising this event and to Phil for taking the photos.
