The Guild will be joining the Museum in celebrating the 70th Anniversary of the Battle of Britain with the creation of a special long term exhibition for display in the Museum's Art Gallery.
Taking the Battle of Britain as its theme, this exhibition will showcase over 40 paintings, some of which, have never been on public display before.
A range of subjects will be displayed, all of which will illustrate various aspects of the Battle of Britain, one of the most important events in the history of the Royal Air Force. Some of the paintings will be available for purchase later in the year.
The Art Gallery is located in hangar 1 and is open from 10.00am to 5.00pm, admission is free.
Search and Rescue
25 October - 29 October
This Half Term, the Royal Air Force Museum invites children over 5 to participate in a free and exciting activity in which both they and their friends will become active participants in a sea rescue and discover how the Royal Air Force mounts such operations in hazardous conditions.
Sessions are at 11:00, 12:00, 14:00 and 15:00 each day and last approximately 30 minutes. All that we ask is that you report to the event co-ordinator 10 minutes before each session to avoid disappointment.
Please note, younger children will need to be accompanied by an adult, but are welcome to participate in this experience.
The day will run from 10am until 4pm. Entry to the event and to the rest of the Museum site is FREE.
We make every effort to adhere to our published schedule. However, dates may vary without notice. Please confirm dates and times prior to the event to avoid disappointment.
