Community exhibition open 13th May – 16th November 2025 at Wycombe Museum.
Commemorating the 80 years since the end of World War 2. Explore how Buckinghamshire has marked the end of wars from 17th – 20th century.
To mark the 80th anniversaries of VE Day and VJ Day on 8 May and 15 August 2025 respectively, an exhibition by the Bucks Military Museum Trust will commemorate not just the end of conflicts but, using images and artefacts, it will also demonstrate the costs paid by those from the county who served in the armed forces from the British Civil Wars to the Revolutionary and Napoleonic Wars, the two world wars of the twentieth century, and in contemporary conflict.
Wycombe Museum’s Community Exhibition Programme
If you are part of a community group or local charity and would like to see an exhibition of your group in the museum, we’d love to hear from you! Email us at info@wycombemuseum.org.
What’s involved?
The group lends items that represent them to go in a display case and/or artwork for the walls. You will also write a couple of paragraphs for the introduction panel, and some information about what the items are.
Museum staff will edit the text, produce the panels and labels and install the exhibition.
