Littlehampton Museum — Attraction in Arun

Who was the best dressed Man in Littlehampton, he still is quite good nowadays, but then he was a bobby dazzler? There are two brilliant exhibitions on at Littlehampton Museum in the Town Hall in Church Street and they are free to go to. With the one showing drawings, paintings of Littlehampton, I was so impressed I think Littlehampton Town Council should buy the whole lot and have them on permanent display. With the other exhibition you can find out who the best dressed man was. Opening Littlehampton's Attic Saturday 21 July - Friday 07 September As part of the celebrations for the Museum’s 90th birthday, the Museum team will be looking through the collections and selecting 90 of the most fascinating, curious, and rarely-seen objects to tell the story of the Museum for our big summer show. Visitors can expect to see all types of objects, from local archaeological discoveries from the 1930s to a treasured scrapbook belonging to a past Curator. Come and learn more about what the museum holds and try your hand at some fun activities! We have several events planned to compliment this exhibition, including a birthday party and summer holiday workshops. So, who was the best dressed Man? Please let me know who you think it was. Scenes of Littlehampton (All Littlehampton Shop owners should go to this one) Wednesday 18 July - Friday 07 September Littlehampton artist Rad Radburn will be showcasing his colourful pen and wash drawings of well known Littlehampton places, from the shops on Surrey Street to the many public houses around the town. His art is sure to charm visitors throughout the summer period. Rad's artwork will be available...

This is a very nice local museum, particularly focused on the history of Littlehampton and its environs. Materials range from fossils and stone age items to WWII, with a good representation of the historical topography during Roman times ( particularly interesting is the Climping Hoard, alongside materials from the Angmering Roman Villa), some nice medieval material and a very good section on Littlehampton as a busy coastal town during the 19th century. Despite its somewhat reduced size, this is a thriving cultural reality with a solid outreach program, publications, and temporary exhibitions which complement the permanent display and keep this free-access museum interesting for the locals as well as the tourists. What more can I say?...
