Nantwich Museum is turning back the clock to mark the 80th anniversary of VE Day.
Everyone is welcome to attend a drop in event at the museum celebrating Victory in Europe Day on May 8 when there will be themed refreshments in the Millennium Gallery from 10am and 4pm.
It takes place as part of a VE Day exhibition capturing the joy felt in Nantwich as the war ended.
Museum manager Kate Dobson said: “Victory in Europe Day, 8 May 1945, the day after Germany surrendered unconditionally marking the end of World War 2 in the west is being celebrated at the museum with an exhibition running from Tuesday, May 6 to Saturday, May 10.
“Artefacts and memorabilia of the time are featured introducing a more substantial exhibition, ‘Nantwich in World War 2’ running from Wednesday July 22 to Saturday October 11.”
