About

A half term week of fun on a postcard theme! Inspired by Chippenham Museum's current online exhibition Loose Threads, explore Chippenham by postcard. Download family activities and follow our online how-to videos to design your own postcard to send to a loved one. Discover mirror writing, perspective drawing and more!

Chippenham Museum's online exhibition Loose Threads is a celebration of Chippenham's heritage with creative responses by Bath Textile Artists to the Don Little Collection. A well-regarded local figure, Donald Little bequeathed to Chippenham Museum his vast collection of postcards, photographs and ephemera relating to the town.

Chippenham Museum is a Chippenham Town Council facility with free entry, two floors of galleries and level access throughout. When out of lockdown, the museum is open 10am – 4pm every day except Sunday.
