Did you know that all of the community museums offer free admission on the first weekend of the month (Saturday or Sunday)?

The Museum of the Jewellery Quarter will be open for free this Saturday 1st October and Aston Hall, Blakesley Hall, Sarehole Mill and Soho House will have free admission on Sunday 2nd October. As well as free admission, there is an opportunity to meet Mick the Miller at Sarehole Mill on Sunday.
