National Holocaust Museum Uk
OUR STORY We opened in 1995 as Beth Shalom (The House of Peace), the only place of Holocaust remembrance & learning in the world founded by Christians - the remarkable Smith family. After a trip to Yad Vashem, they were keen to inspire others in Britain to take responsibility for the years of anti-Jewish hate which helped enable the Holocaust. Based in Laxton in the Sherwood Forest area, we became a home-from-home for inspiring speakers: Holocaust survivors. An extension of the Smith family, they attracted ever-growing audiences. One by one, our family of survivors entrusted their artefacts to our care. This is how we evolved from a single exhibition in a family farmhouse, into a nationally accredited museum with prestigious ‘National Portfolio Organisation’ status from @ArtsCouncilEngland. The museum will always exist to serve our educational purpose. The testimonies of our cherished family of Survivors will always be our educational backbone. And our ethos will always be true to the warm Smith family. Marina and Eddie Smith, now in their 80s, live on the estate. Their son Dr James Smith CBE remains our President, as well as heading our sister charity @AegisTrust, which runs the Kigali genocide memorial in Rwanda. James’ brother @StephenSmith MBE was our first Director, before moving to LA to run Steven Spielberg’s USC Shoah Foundation for 12 years. With superb Educational and Curatorial teams, we offer Primary, Secondary and Tertiary level learning programmes - all underpinned by our two permanent exhibitions, collections and stunning memorial gardens. Powerful sculptures and the scent & sight of white roses, each dedicated to named victims, serve as poignant commemoration, reflection and healing spaces. Overall, with our bridge-building #interfaith heritage, we are a warm, comfortable environment in which to encourage uncomfortable dialogue between people of all faiths and none. We are a safe space. We are a museum like no other.

Leighton House And Sambourne House Museums
Tucked away in Holland Park, a leafy neighbourhood in West London, stand Leighton House and Sambourne House. They are the extraordinary legacies left by two ‘celebrities’ of the late Victorian era – Frederic Lord Leighton (1830-1896) and Edward Linley Sambourne (1844 -1910). Combining living and studio space, the houses remain largely unchanged today. Leighton and Sambourne lived as neighbours for over 20 years and had many acquaintances in common. They were widely known to their contemporaries; Leighton as the most prominent artist of his day, a celebrated painter and president of the Royal Academy of Arts and Sambourne as Chief Cartoonist at the infamous satirical magazine Punch. Their similar tastes were reflected in the furnishing of their homes, both filled with sculpture, blue and white ceramics and glassware. But if we delve beyond the physical artefacts, what do we know about these men, their lives and careers, and why do their former homes capture our imagination today?
