Farnham Maltings Summer 2017 Brochure by farnham maltings

May â&#x20AC;&#x201C; August 2017

welcome For those of you who actually read these introductions you will spot a recurring theme – one that speaks about our desire to be useful and to contribute to the health and character of our town. And yet, when I look at all that is happening in the world just now, it can feel hard to feel positive about what we are achieving. In these moments I am reduced to remembering an argument with an eminent politician in which they said ‘you should get involved in politics’ to which I replied, without thinking, ‘I am far too busy trying to make the world a better place to get involved in politics’. I remain certain of that truth. That there is real value in creating a welcoming, democratic space in the centre of the town that is open to everyone. That by developing opportunities for us all to gather and share experiences with people not like ourselves, by putting together a programme of events that encourage imagination and thought and play, we will make thousands of small differences to peoples lives. And that this might all add up to something significant. If you are still reading this then there is one small, practical thing you can do that might make one small difference for us. And it is this: take a copy of this brochure and give it to someone you know, or better still, someone you don’t know. Tell them that we are curious and genuinely interested in being a place they might want to visit. Thanks Gavin Stride Director

The Museum is also home to an extensive art and craft collection thanks to the many artists and crafts workers who have been drawn to Farnham over the years. The Museum is located in a beautiful early Georgian town house, complete with many original features and a stunning walled garden hidden away behind the museum. Built in 1718 by a wealthy hop-grower, Willmer House is one of the many architectural gems in the town and well worth a visit for any lover of historic buildings.
