Curator-led exhibition tours - June

Every month our curators will guide you through the exhibition exploring the lives of Londoners during the Second World War.

Join one of the curators of our current exhibition for an in-depth tour exploring the lives of Londoners who lived and worked in a city at war. The tour lasts approximately 45 minutes and there will be an opportunity to ask questions. After the tour you'll have plenty of time to explore the exhibition by yourself.

Weds 7 May, 12 noon | Sat 10 May, 12 noon | Tue 13 May, 2pm | Wed 21 May, 5.30pm | £5

Our London in the Second World War exhibition runs from 24 February until 30 October, and explores the experiences of Londoners during the Second World War and the effect it had on the city they knew. Find out what it was like to live through the Blitz, to see your neighbourhood change overnight, or to be a volunteer with one of the city’s emergency services. Discover London County Council bomb damage maps, personal diaries, atmospheric photographs and rarely seen original artworks.
