Exhibit Information
June 3, 2018 to May 2019: The Comforts of Home |
|
Our June exhibit will be "The Comforts of Home" which will look at what comforts the soldiers had during the First and Second World Wars. What was life like for the soldiers overseas in and out of the trenches? What could they get overseas to make their life more comfortable; what were they sent from home to ease their battle-weary life; what items were they able to use during any relaxation time that would add to their well-being? Let's take a look. |
