Upcycled Christmas Trees

by

Upcycled Christmas

Where else would you see a Christmas tree entirely made of spectacles or – socks – than Eastleigh Museum’s Upcycled Christmas Tree Festival! This is One Community’s third annual Community Christmas Tree Festival at the museum and this year the theme is upcycling, to focus on environmental concerns and the re-purposing of what might otherwise be discarded.

Local voluntary and community groups have let their imaginations run riot – and we can guarantee that you won’t have seen as many milk bottle tops used in an art installation – ever!

The trees are in turn quirky, clever and beautiful, and viewed together are stunning, and each gives a message about the work done by each of the organisations represented. 

Admission is free and the exhibition runs from 23 November to 4 January in Eastleigh Museum’s temporary exhibition gallery.

At the West Street Christmas Lights event in Fareham on the 24th of November, you can come and find Hayley and the team and play some silly games. The event is running from 10-6 and is a lovely community event. This year the theme is a Victorian Christmas.

Games include splat the rat… and…..Pick a snowman’s nose.Yes, any carrot could win and it has to be an improvement for our poor specimen here! He’s more of a Kira Knightley than a Barry Manilow that’s for sure!

It is just £1 for 3 goes. Everyone gets a prize.

So come and join us and win!

Santa visits Eastleigh Museum

On Saturday the 16th of November, our very own Santa came to Eastleigh Museum.

We had lots of families, with young and not so young come in to see us. It was a really lovely time of lights, fun and community.
