Film night screening of 'The Red Shoes' at the Grosvenor Museum, which is marking its 140th anniversary.
The Red Shoes is screening at Grosvenor Museum on Thursday 29 October, starting at 7pm. It's a film night in the museum, so you'll be watching it right there in the building rather than at a cinema.
The screening is part of the museum's 140th anniversary celebrations. The Grosvenor opened in 1886, and this year marks a century and four decades of it sitting at the heart of Chester's cultural life, where generations of local families have gone to discover the city's history. Councillor Lisa Denson, Cabinet Member for a Fairer Future (Poverty, Public Health and Museums), described it as an important part of Chester's cultural life for 140 years.
To mark the milestone, the museum has been running a programme of special activities and online content throughout October. Local personalities and well-known regional figures have been recording birthday messages, and residents have been invited to share their own stories connected to the museum over the years. The former museum shop has also been transformed into a flexible community Hub, which now hosts regular groups like Café Crafts and a Book Club.
