The museum is hosting a free outdoor event, Bringing History to Life! in the garden at St John’s House on the Saturday July 17 from 11am to 3pm.
Curator Stephanie Bennett said: “Although the museum is closed until it moves to Pageant House in town, I wanted to do something during the summer for the local community and to say that we’re still here for you.”
The event will feature Royal Warwickshire Regiment re-enactors from the Boer War and the two world wars.
And other entertainment will include music from Ruby Ann Sings, together with an an observation bee-hive, candle rolling, a children’s trail and activities, and fancy dress competition with a military theme – including a prize for best dressed child (ten and under).
