Please note that the museum is leading a double life as a polling station for local elections today - so will be closed for normal museum enjoyment…

Vote for us! 🗳️ in the Hertfordshire Association of Museums ‘Object of the Year’ Award for 2024!
We’ve nominated our gorgeous dusky oil painting of Broadway, by Sylvia Molloy, which was one of the most popular pieces in our ‘Letchworth: Lives & Landscapes’ show at @BroadwayLGC
We love the pinky hues and the wonderful trees… what do you think?!
Will it get your vote? 🗳️
We are two time@past winners of the Object of the Year Award and we’ve presumptively cleared a little space for another trophy next to the other two… don’t let us down! 🏆

It will run until early 2024 and the museum is open Monday to Saturday 10am-5pm.
