Get involved... www.derbymuseums.org/remake @derbysilkmill #remakemuseum The Silk Mill is in the process of reinventing itself for the 21st century - through reviving the principles of the Enlightenment and expanding traditional perspectives of what a museum is and can be. The concept has been developed from a desire to reflect Derby’s 300 year story of innovation; starting with the Silk Mill as the site of the world’s first factory, through to the modern day city as a leader in advanced engineering and manufacturing.
