Wolverhampton in WW2

Our Freedom Then and Now

11-3pm Sunday November 16th

Wolverhampton Arts Centre, Gazebo TIE, RAF Midlands Museum and Learn Play invite you to a free family day exploring Wolverhampton life during WW2.

Featuring a programme of free family fun activities including period photography, an inter-active technology display bringing past and present to life, exhibitions of WW2 artefacts, creative workshops and a re-creation of the British Restaurant that worked from our own school site during WW2.

More details coming soon but hold the date!

The project centres around the Arts Centre, formerly a Grammar school with a deep WW2 history. By spotlighting the building’s wartime role and linking it with local stories, such as Wolverhampton’s connections to RAF Cosford and the community-funded Spitfires, community voices will shape a uniquely Wolverhampton interpretation of wartime resilience and contemporary freedom.
