A Polish Project
Brew Projects is excited to be working together on A Polish Project in collaboration with Open Doors and The National Civil War Centre, Newark. We’re currently working to explore how the museum can continue to represent and celebrate Polish heritage. Whilst working with members of the public and representatives of the Polish Community in the Newark and Sherwood District.
Open Call!
To make this project truly meaningful, we want to collaborate closely with people from the community. Your insights and experiences could help shape the way Polish heritage is reflected in the museum’s exhibitions, displays, and events. The project will run from this autumn through to March 2026, with a range of activities planned along the way, including a public exhibition.
