WHAT’S ON

Temporary Exhibitions

Artistic Rustington

From August 2022 until January 2023

This exhibition is celebration of the Museum’s Art Collection and contains many pieces by artists from Rustington and also views from the Village. It won’t be just paintings that are shown. Books, postcards and other objects relating to the artists will be on display.  

The artists featured include Albert and William Belleroche who lived at the Old Manor House to Arthur Rackham who stayed at the home of Graham Sutherland. There will also be a changing display of works by lesser known artists, showing views of the Village. This lovely painting of the church c1903 will be on display alongside other views.

The most exciting items though will be paintings on loan from other Museums, all with a Rustington connection… 

Community Case – Southdown Buses

From August 2022

We have a fantastic display of model buses in the Southdown’s livery. From the original green to the modern orange, white and blue, the buses are a nostalgic trip. Can you find the routes you remember?

Linking with the art exhibition, there are also folders of artwork by Paul Darton, who lent us the buses. They are lovely sketches of the buses going through the village and other views.
