Hide AdGemma Clarke, publicity officer, said: “We are really looking forward to celebrating the 25th anniversary of the Gainsborough Heritage Association this year with our 1940s themed dance at the Weston Rooms.
“The dance is an amazing fundraising opportunity for the Centre to help maintain the stonework of the building that dates back to 1904 known locally for many years as Gainsborough’s General Post Office and Telephone Exchange.”
Many of the Centre’s exhibitions are permanent reminders to shops in Gainsborough’s market place as well as a 40s themed living room and kitchen scene that shares a story with a range of different objects that have been donated to the Association.

The Association’s collections and resources have grown since being based in the Old Post Office on North Street and it is vitally important to the town’s heritage that this continues.
Gemma said: “Tickets are now on sale for the dance and can be purchased at the Heritage Centre or at the Pink Orchid in Gainsborough.
