Haslemere Educational Museum<br />
Touring exhibitions<br />
The museum holds over 240,000 Natural History specimens, along with over 140,000 Human History artefacts from<br />
around the World. It is one of the largest Museums in central southern England. Its Textiles Collection and European<br />
Peasant Art Collection are particular strengths. Artefacts are of mainly everyday items, for example food containers,<br />
furniture and domestic implements, which have been made beautiful by exquisite carving and paintwork. Of around 800<br />
costumes held by the museum, the majority are from Eastern and Northern European countries such as Hungary,<br />
Sweden, Romania, Russia and Norway. Highlights include Hungarian chemises and headscarves, Romanian blouses and<br />
skirts and Norwegian bodices, waistcoats and belts. Most are 19th century and many of these feature the traditional<br />
natural dye colours of rural Europe. Our non-Western costumes tend to be mainly from China and India. We also hold<br />
items made from plant fibre from Pacific areas, such as Samoan tapa cloth and a 19th century vegetable fibre.<br />

Heath Robinson Museum (The)<br />
Touring exhibitions<br />
We are building a museum in Pinner, North London that will become the national and international centre for the<br />
understanding and appreciation of the life and work of William Heath Robinson and a unique centre for the wider study<br />
of illustration as an art form. William Heath Robinson is an artist of international standing and his work, whether in his<br />
well known humorous drawings or his illustrations for Kipling, Shakespeare or his own children’s stories, is integral to the<br />
fabric of British cultural heritage. The Museum’s collection includes over 900 pieces of original artwork that are<br />
representative of all aspects of his creative output, including some of the landscapes and imaginative watercolours that<br />
he painted throughout his life for his own pleasure. These are complemented by a wide range of his published work,<br />
nursery china with his designs, ephemera including proofs, prints, cuttings, photographs etc. and 25 folders of letters. A<br />
flexible touring exhibition of between 60 and 100 works was first shown at Dulwich Picture Gallery in 2003 and has been<br />
touring ever since.<br />
