Vibrant Jersey Weddings
Just engaged? Looking to plan for your wedding? Once the thrill of becoming engaged has sunk in and you are able to peel your eyes away from the new addition on your finger, (well just for a second or two), it`s time to start making some very important decisions to kick start the planning of your dream day. We have listed many of our local suppliers & services below, to help you plan your big day.
The Jersey Plaquettes
Engraved stones found in Jersey are the the earliest art forms discovered in the British Isles
In 2010, 15,000 years after the first pioneer hunter-gatherers arrived in Jersey, archaeologists came to the area of Les Varines to the south-east of the Island, where stone artefacts had been discovered after the fields were ploughed. Excavations took place over the next eight years. They revealed hearths, paving stones of a camp and thousands of flint tools left behind by the hunters. Ten fragile fragments of engraved stone were also discovered, each marked with abstract designs. This display tells the story of the pioneer people, and investigates the meaning of these mysterious stones, which have been described as the earliest art forms to have yet been discovered in the British Isles.
Weapons of World War Two Exhibition
The Tower is a British 1770’s Defence Tower modified during the Second World War to become a German Anti-Aircraft Bunker.It is now used for Pop-Up Exhibitions covering the island’s military history.This winter we are going to feature the “Weapons of World War Two Exhibition” with a focus on the Occupation of the Channel Islands.The Collection on display will be able to be handled and includes over 30 various types of German and Allied weapons.This is a small Exhibition and all funds raised will be invested back into the maintenance of the Tower and other WW2 Projects.Due to the size of the bunker, we are limited to small groups so please book online to avoid disappointment.Bookings must be made online here: https://bookeo.com/jerseywartours…
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.

1781 The Battle of Jersey and The Death of Major Peirson
The monumental events of January 1781, when a French invasion force landed in Jersey
Britain was at war with France on and off throughout the 18th century. In the 1760s, Britain and Jersey set about a campaign of privateering, or licensing pirating, which inflicted considerable damage on French trade in the English Channel. It wasn’t long before retaliation was on the cards. This display explores that time using John Singleton Copley’s painting ‘The Death of Major Peirson’ and artefacts in the Jersey Heritage Collection. The exhibition also considers the abiding influence of these historic events upon the Island’s self-image.

Searching for Jersey’s Celts
The world’s largest Celtic hoard was discovered in Jersey, this exhibition explores why people might have buried it there.
In 2012 the world’s largest Celtic hoard was discovered buried in a field in Jersey. This exhibition explores what might have led people to bury a hoard of 70,000 coins and jewellery in Jersey, 2000 years ago and looks closely at some of the items found within the hoard.
Explore the time when Roman armies marched through Europe, 2000 years ago, they left behind them a trail of death and destruction which almost wiped out the culture and civilization of the Celtic people who lived there. Using scientific and archaeological research we can learn more about the people that buried the hoard, about their lives and customs. Ground-breaking research can tell us more about the moment and the place the hoard was buried. It might even challenge some long-held ideas about why hoards were buried.

Bouonnefemme
Meet Rose Le Brun, the Bouonnefemme at Hamptonne, who will let you in on local secrets and village gossip!
Every Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday / 10am to 4pm
Meet Rose Le Brun, the Bouonnefemme at Hamptonne, who will let you in on local secrets and village gossip. Rose’s predecessor, Old Maud, had been at Hamptonne for years, but she travelled to St Aubin to see family and never returned. Perhaps the plague got her – they had a lot of it down there.
Rose was born in the parish of St Lawrence in 1606 and lived in the Vingtaine du Coin Motier, where Hamptonne House stands, all her life. She serves as housekeeper for Jurat Laurens Hamptonne, who himself witnessed Rose lugging a large poutchie of apples up the hill, and thought her constitution would be fitting to take charge of his household.
If meeting the Bouonnefemme is going to be the highlight of your trip to Hamptonne Country Life Museum, please call +44 (0) 1534 863 955 before you visit to check that performances are confirmed for that date.

Mary Shelley’s Frankenstein
Adapted for the stage by Rona Munro / Directed by Hettie Duncan and Nicole Twinam
“You, are my nightmare. You’re the heart of the horror. You’re woven through my imagination, as close as my own blood and breath. I will look at you. I will understand you. This is your story and I won’t look away again.”
A young scientist breathes life into a gruesome body.
Banished into an indifferent world, Victor Frankenstein’s creation desperately seeks out its identity only to be faced with cruelty and fear. Pushed into darkness by rejection and a broken promise, the creature sets out on a bloodthirsty and vengeful mission to seek revenge on its master.
Rona Munro’s “inventive feminist adaptation” (The Stage) of this Gothic masterpiece places Mary Shelley at the heart of the story, as she wrestles with her horrific creation and with the stark realities facing revolutionary young women then, and now.
Suitable for 8 years +
By arrangement with Nick Hern Books.

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.
