This is a rather special announcement from me, I am really pleased to be curating a vintage Star Wars exhibition!
The exhibition is called 'May The Toys Be With You' (I tried to go with Bonsai's Big Exhibition but they weren't having it… ) and will feature both the vintage toy line and vintage Star Wars posters, along with a few other nice surprises and fun things for children and family visitors.
It is running from 5th December to 6th March at The Beaney House of Art and Knowledge in the lovely city of Canterbury. The venue is beautiful, it had a recent £14m refit and you couldn't ask for a nicer place to display a collection in. The staff at the Beaney have also been so enthusiastic and I know they will put on a great exhibition, they have displayed Manet's before in there so this is quite a coup to have the gallery given over to Star Wars – they are hoping for record visitor numbers!
The exhibition is free to enter and I might add that I'm donating my collection for free also, so I do hope the vintage community will support it – help spread the word and do come along, be great to see some of the SWFUK boys there!
