Join us on a journey around the globe exploring how the story of Angus has been shaped by our relationship with the world.<\/p>\n

Marvel at objects collected from almost every continent including iconic samurai armour, a beautifully embellished wall panel from the Imperial Palace in China, hand-crafted Fijian war clubs and the manuscripts of explorer and diplomat Alexander Burnes who almost, but not quite, changed the course of world history\u2026 These objects not only unlock rich stories of Angus people who travelled all over the world but also the impact they had on the people, cultures and ways of life they encountered as they did so.<\/p>\n

Be part of our conversation to re-discover history by exploring the legacies of Empire and colonialism in our museum collections, our towns, and in our national identity. Question, learn and grow by exploring this forgotten aspect of our shared history.<\/p>\n

No booking required – just drop in during museum opening hours.<\/p>\n
