Ryedale Folk Museum

Hey everyone!!! It has been a cold few days!!! Talk about a lot of snow. Good for having a snowball fight or even making a snowman. At the museum we are getting ready for our Christmas Weekend. And get this -IT IS FREE to everyone for the whole weekend! We have got so much happening, come up. There will be something suitable for everyone as well as seeing the museum itself you can have a lot of fun at the same time. See everyone later. Little em.

On Friday 19th November the model village at Ryedale Folk Museum was officially declared complete and open!  The volunteers have worked on restoring the village since its arrival in 2008.  For more history of the project see volunteer John Nicoll's previous blog post - http://ryedalefolkmuseum.blogspot.com/2009/06/john-nicoll-workshop-volunteer.html   The official unveiling of the plaque was performed by Anne Mcintosh MP.  See the video below: C.G

Hey everyone! This week I have been celebrating because on Tuesday 9th November that marked my one year anniversary at the museum!!! Seriously, how fast as this year gone?! I can't believe how much I have done in one year. I have done Front of House, delivered sessions to school groups, been to a few conferences and certainly lots more. I would like to thank all the members of staff and the volunteers who work at the museum. They have gave me a lot of support over the past 12 months. So I am in my final year but I don't need to go to college because that is all completed now. I only need to gather evidence for my portfolio. I will soon need to think about what I would like to do after my Apprenticeship because last year went really fast and I have a sneaky feeling that this year will go just as fast. Thank you all again. Little em
