@BM_AG is gearing up for the first performance from @GeeseTheatre of the day. Come join us in the participation space between 1pm & 3pm for stories exploring the theme of home.

@1839_dt @BarberInstitute @BMTVolunteering @BMTMCC @BMTEngage Thank you so much 🥰 The chaps are keen to come back by themselves which literally made my day. They had so much to say about the works, it was thoroughly enjoyable to chat with them about art!

Wow! What a day!! We just got back from the most wonderful afternoon at the @BarberInstitute Fully immersed ourselves into their collection for some art appreciation and then Wayne led a session on abstract painting. We had the warmest welcome from all staff, thank you so much!

@AlexAshford86 @BarberInstitute @BMTVolunteering @BMTMCC @BMTEngage Thank you so much ❤️ That really means a lot. The guys were just so delighted to be in front of some real art, they were telling me about all these documentaries they'd watched about the difference between Monet and Manet 🥲 So proud.

@AndreaBonnell @BarberInstitute @BMTVolunteering @BMTMCC @BMTEngage Such inspiring stuff @AndreaBonnell . Honestly showing us what good museums, collections, heritage and people can do. The way forward.

@Patferrins @Dave_E124 Thank you!! It was was a bit of a rush job so glad I didn't sound too hectic! 🤗

Doing my best 😅

What a great day! Big shout out to the @thinktankmuseum team, so grateful for all your help for #ArmedForcesDay2022 Here are some beautiful messages of gratitude and few of our visitors masterpieces. 🛩️🛩️🛩️

We flipped the script half way through the day and Steve came and set up some Space busking, we've had people who were with us this morning literally run back over because there was something new 🤣👍

Loving all the planes and favourite people coming out of the Spitfire gallery today!! We still have some supplies, so do pop along to nab yourself a plane or keyring

Meet the expert with Dave is going well he's been explaining in more detail what the VfV volunteers have been getting up to. We've got lots of speculation as to what the story is behind our Spitfire engine is 🛩️🛩️🛩️

@EnglishSarahH @thinktankmuseum @Dave_E124 @BMTVolunteering @BMTEngage Thank you so much!!

@AndreaBonnell @thinktankmuseum @Dave_E124 @BMTVolunteering @BMTEngage Hope it goes really well

Ahh Dave sorting us out a prototype ready for crafts to commence @thinktankmuseum for #ArmedForcesDay2022 Come and join us 11am - 4pm for activities on level 1

@jon_sleigh @thinktankmuseum Daww thank you Jon, such kind words! We're going to plant all the messages and create a legacy wildflower patch in the science garden - my heart is just too full with the wholesomeness of it ❤️

Just a little sneak peek at what we're setting up in the spitfire gallery @thinktankmuseum for #armedforcesday tomorrow, still bits to add, but the bulk of the set up is done.

Thank you for sharing our little video ❤️
