Until recently, all special exhibitions were held in the largest
exhibition gallery on the lower ground floor of the
Museum. In 2006 we held our first summer show John
Bates: Fashion Designer on the ground floor in the elegant
surroundings of the Ball Room of the Assembly Rooms.
This was followed in 2007 by Pick of the Bunch in
the Ball Room, the touring exhibition Travilla - the man who
dressed Marilyn Monroe in 2008, The Story of the
Supremes in 2009 and Dressing The Stars in
2011.
