Corinium Museum, Cirencester

I am currently exhibiting with the Cheltenham Group of Artists at the Corinium Museum in Cirencester.  The exhibition runs until 25th June and museum is open daily. Entrance to the gallery is free and it is a nice, compact space so well worth a look if you are heading to, or just passing through Cirencester.

I remember going to the museum quite frequently as a child and always loved seeing the Roman House room reconstructions (complete with underfloor heating), the life-size Roman soldier and the Roman? skeleton kept laid out alongside a darkened walkway for spooky effect…

There are also some amazing mosaics too!
