Went on a guided walk around the community gardens in Mile Cross. Had conversations about nature, the city, and our relationship with both that will inform a new play by The Common Lot. Look out for From Mousehold to the Marsh coming to Norwich in early July.

We are open to the public again at the beginning of April, but in the meantime there is much going on behind the scenes, as we work to recruit new Trustees and Volunteers, and to find a new permanent home for the Museum.
