A final appeal has been issued by Louth Museum for information and photographs to boost its next exhibition.

Each year, the Broadbank museum stages a temporary exhibition for its summer season which proves popular with visitors.

The theme for this year is ‘Growing Up In Louth 1939-1989’, which opens on Wednesday, April 2 and runs until Saturday, October 25 on Wednesdays to Saturdays from 10 am to 4 pm.

Curator Julie Gough explained: “The exhibition will feature a display of beautiful photographs, some oral history recordings, information about the period, activities for children, and a variety of other relevant items of interest. It will be a nostalgic look at life in the 20th century.

Louth Museum, which hosts the 'Growing Up In Louth 1939-1989' exhibition on Wednesdays to Saturdays from April to October.

"The exhibition is almost complete now, but the organisers would still like to have a few more written accounts of growing up in Louth during the war years.

"If you were a child or young person during the Second World War, and grew up in Louth, we would love to hear from you.”
