    Issued: 2 November 2017 Record breaking Terry Pratchett exhibition at The Salisbury Museum On 16 September The Salisbury Museum, the Estate of Sir Terry Pratchett and Paul Kidby, opened an exclusive major exhibition ‘Terry Pratchett: HisWorld’. Within two weeks of opening, a record 2,700 visitors had been to experience the show, quite literally coming from all four corners of the earth to honour Sir Terry. This major exhibition explores the life of Sir Terry Pratchett, giving a privileged insight into the man who created some of literature’s most enduringly popular fantasy worlds and characters. To be able to hold this exhibition at Salisbury Museum is very relevant to Terry’s story. Terry moved to what he described as a ‘Domesday manorette’ near Salisbury in 1993. His affinity with the Chalke Valley is reflected in the books he wrote. He drew on his personal experiences and fascination with the chalk downland when creating his characters and stories, especially the Tiffany Aching novels. Terry was also a patron of a number of local causes and was actively involved with local communities. Rob Wilkins, manager of Sir Terry’s estate, said ‘we are absolutely overjoyed at both the number of people who have visited the exhibition, and their feedback on getting to explore Terry’s world. We all believed this exhibition would be popular, but to see it succeed on this scale is marvellous. Terry meant the world to his fans, but so many visitors previously unfamiliar with his work have also taken both him and his creations into their hearts.’ The exhibition features artwork by Terry himself, and over 40 stunning original paintings and drawings by Paul Kidby, Terry’s artist of choice.

Rob Wilkins, manager of Sir Terry’s estate said, ‘The global success of his work and the outpouring of affection for Terry during his life and after his death highlight the importance of this exhibition. Terry left behind so many words, into which this exhibition will provide a tantalizing window into their creator and the private space in which they were created.’ ‘Terry relished the opportunity to connect with his readers and we have no doubt that this opportunity for visitors to immerse themselves wholly in his life and work, and to be able view some of his treasured possessions, from his Knightly sword to his Blue Peter badge, would have both delighted and amused him.’ The exhibition will feature artwork by Terry himself, and over 40 stunning original paintings and drawings by Paul Kidby, Terry’s artist of choice.
