Visitors on this and the following Saturday will see a collection of illustrations of local life and history prepared and hung by John Sheaf. It is a quiet unveiling of the old house left to us by the late Jack Ellis, restored in a way we believe he would have approved.

For the moment we want to introduce the house to those who have watched, waited and supported us, and to present an outline ofthe rich and varied history ofthe old borough in its full extent. The House Some of you will recall the sight which greeted us on taking possession nearly three years ago, of rooms packed to bursting with goods of every description which you later helped to sell. Many have looked in at subsequent stages in the house's recovery, curiosity overcoming the bazards of entry. At our last Open Day before building work began, Tony Beckles Willson's history of St Mary's Church was launched and a small exhibition mounted. By the end of March this year the administrators of Jack Ellis's estate had finished their work, and the house belonged, for the first time in law, to The Twickenham Museum.

  • Cultural Partnership Strategy 2015 - 2019 Foreword
    CULTURAL PARTNERSHIP STRATEGY 2015 - 2019 FOREWORD I am delighted to present Richmond upon Thames’ Cultural Partnership Strategy 2015 – 2019. The strategy defines the Borough’s commitment to the creative arts and aims to ensure that Richmond continues to be known for providing a high quality cultural environment for both residents and visitors alike. Culture enriches the lives of everyone and makes a valuable contribution to the health and wellbeing of our community. Through our Cultural Partnership Strategy I believe we have the opportunity to extend the quality and impact of the arts sector. It has been a pleasure to see the Borough’s cultural community working together to develop and shape this strategy. It is exciting to see the commitments that have been made and I am thrilled by the possibilities that this will bring to us all in Richmond upon Thames over the next four years. Councillor Meena Bond Cabinet Member for Arts, Culture and Sport 2 CULTURAL PARTNERSHIP STRATEGY 2015 - 2019 INTRODUCTION This Cultural Partnership Strategy sets out the four-year strategy for culture in the London Borough of Richmond upon Thames 2015- 2019 which has been developed in partnership between the cultural organisations in the Borough and the Council. The strategy outlines the Cultural Partnership’s shared vision for culture in the Borough. We believe collaboration across the local cultural sector will achieve the greatest benefit for residents in terms of our individual lives; our community; individual wellbeing and the local economy. The Strategy focuses on three goals which we believe our resources can most effectively be invested, as individual organisations, and through the Council’s cultural services and commissioned activities.
