A temporary exhibition

We know Mary Anning’s discoveries. We know far less about Mary Anning herself.

In Search of Mary Anning: New Discoveries is a new exhibition that brings together a collection of artefacts to piece together a portrait of one of history’s most celebrated and least understood scientists. Featuring a recently acquired rare handwritten letter fragment in her own hand and an original drawing of her Lyme Regis home amongst other insightful correspondence and objects, the exhibition offers a rare and intimate glimpse into the life of the woman who changed our understanding of prehistoric life forever.

Opening 13th June, In Search of Mary Anning: New Discoveries is a must-see for anyone who has ever been inspired by her remarkable story.
