Thank you to everyone who joined us last Thursday as David Mabberley traced the extraordinary story of citrus - from ancient Asian forests to modern breakfast tables. 🍋 We also displayed artworks from our collections that echo chapters of his new book, including van Nooten’s vibrant Pomelo.

Back in the day, there was little separation between display & research collections (often *everything* went on display). Now, beautifully designed displays help catch visitors' attention
