Trade Roots
We examine the evidence of the Island’s involvement in the transatlantic slave trade, including Jersey’s Lieutenant-Governor Sir George Carteret who was a founder member of the Royal Africa Company that traded in ivory, gold and enslaved people in the 17th century; Captain François Messervy of Jersey who was killed in 1722 during an uprising on board his slave ship off the coast of Africa; and Jersey trader Josué Mauger who in 1752 advertised enslaved people for sale in Nova Scotia, Canada, where his business was based.
This exhibition takes place in the Victorian House at Jersey Museum, with its impressive mahogany staircase, because new research has shown that the house was built partly on the profits of the transatlantic slave trade. ‘Trade Roots’ explores Jersey’s historic links to slavery, from Islanders who owned mahogany plantations overseas and traded in slave-produced goods, to those who campaigned for the abolition of slavery.
Thought-provoking, and at times challenging, this exhibition exposes some uncomfortable new stories from Jersey’s past and examines the legacy and impact of transatlantic slavery on the Island’s community today.
Tree Dressing Day
There are so many annual highlights at Hamptonne to celebrate and now we’re ready to add another to the Jersey Heritage calendar with Tree Dressing Day. Join Jersey Heritage in the orchard at Hamptonne for an early evening, winter warmer of an event to celebrate our leafy friends, whose presence alone is enough to reduce stress and improve our sense of wellbeing.
The orchard at Hamptonne is rather special; it is made up of 23 apple trees that are all local cider varieties. At the January Wassail, our visitors help to bless the trees in the hope of an abundant harvest later in the year. They stroll and play under the canopy of blossom provided by them in the spring, picnic under their shade in the heat of the summer and help to pick the apples in the autumn, ready for cider making at La Faîs’sie d’Cidre.
Wrap up warm and join artist Kerry-Jane Warner for decoration making and tree dressing from 4pm, with music and merriment to follow.
Find more about Tree Dressing Day and its origins at www.commonground.org.uk/tree-dressing-day/
Normal entry fee applies. Parking available in Hamptonne Car Park only.

PEOPLE! POWER! PROTEST!
An exhibition that explores how the right to protest has shaped and influenced the Island that we know today.
‘People! Power! Protest!’ explores the story of protest in Jersey, from the Corn Riots of 1769 to the Black Lives Matter movement of 2020.
Jersey may be small but Islanders have made their voices heard loud and clear over the years. Jersey has a fascinating history of protest in the Island and the theme of the exhibition coincides with the 250th anniversary of the Code of Laws that was introduced in response to the Corn Riots.
The exhibition explores how the right to protest has shaped and influenced the Island that we know today, from historic protests, such as the Corn Riots, to more recent protests such as Extinction Rebellion and Black Lives Matter.
Among the items on display is the official 18th century court records showing the redacted demands of the Corn Riots protestors, and the petition signed by thousands of people to try and save Queen’s Valley from being flooded in the 1980s. There are also the banners and placards from other protests over the years and photographs of significant post-war campaigns and demonstrations.
As you enter the exhibition ‘People! Power! Protest!’, you’ll see a stunning graffiti-style entrance wall by designer James Carter, of Midnight Industries. Celebrated local artist Ian Rolls has also created a new version of his iconic climate stripes mural in the environmental protest section of the exhibition. Visitors can to listen to stories of protest and share their own memories of their involvement in campaigns and demonstrations over the years.
The Queen`s Visits To Jersey
An exhibition at Jersey Archive to mark the Platinum Jubilee.
To mark the Platinum Jubilee, a FREE exhibition at Jersey Archive exploring the Royal Visits of the Monarch to our Island before and during her 70 years on the throne. Using images from the Jersey Evening Post Photo Archive and documents from the archive.

We are currently in the process of recording our original music and will hopefully be able to share this with you sometime in the New Year. The remaining band members will carry on making music for your pleasure but will probably be in a different direction and under a new name, we’ll keep you posted!It’s not goodbye just see you later and a thank you to everyone who has supported us over the years!
