Museum of London - late night opening
Come along on Friday 1st October to the Museum of London for a late night opening!
We visited the museum back in June when it reopened after it's £20m overhaul, but there is so much to see, it's worth going back.
About the museum
The late night opening is celebrating the launch of the '2010 Story of London Festival' and the museum's new exhibition, 'London Futures'.
The museum holds over 7,000 objects detailing London's history from 450,000 BC to the present day and the highlight is the '1666 to today' exhibition which opened in June.
The museum is divided into the following exhibitions:
- London before London - covers the period 450,000 BC to AD43.
- Roman London - AD43 to AD410
- Medieval, Stuart & Tudor London - AD410 to 1558
- War, Plaque & Fire - 1550's to 1660's
- 1666 to today
The museum is open until 10pm and will be having free tours of the collection, interactive workshops and a bar.
The museum is free of charge!
Afterwards, we will be meeting in the museum cafe to chat over a drink.
Hope to see you there!
Regards
Robert

SarahMeetups attended - 4The exhibition is really interesting and well worth a visit. It brought back memories and the futures postcards were fun yet at the same time thought provoking. It was good to be there on the opening night with the food, drinks and music laid on.
