300 Years of Making

** Due to the current situation with Covid-19, we have unfortunately had to cancel all museum events up until at least the end of April. Please check with individual organisations if their events are going ahead (updates to follow as the Covid-19 situation develops). – www.derbymuseums.org/news.**

The opening of the Museum of Making on the site of the world’s first factory is an important moment for Derby. We have joined forces with partners across the city and region to help mark this milestone with a year-long celebration of events, starting in June 2020 and culminating in the tricentenary of the Silk Mill in June 2021.

The 300 programme will celebrate 300 years of making in Derby and the wider region as well as inspiring makers of the future through a co-ordinated programme of events and activities. Please see a selection of these listed below.
