Exhibition based on childhood recollections of this post-war festival in London in 1951.
Two hundred years ago, education pioneer Samuel Wilderspin began his travels across Britain promoting infant schools in the nation’s towns, villages and cities. Our celebrations begin with this exhibition about his amazing adventures and achievements, and a programme of events through to 2026.
In 1825 Samuel Wilderspin undertook his first road-trip promoting infant schools in villages, towns and cities across the nation. The 800 mile roundtrip set the pattern of things to come over the next 20 years. Based on his own accounts, this exhibition highlights the challenges of lone travel across the British Isles just as the railway age was dawning. It’s a unique story of ambition and endurance.
