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.

Watch the ladies of Hamptonne use the Jersey spindle wheel to create local textile crafts.

Every Sunday, Monday and Tuesday / 10am to 4pm

Within the atmospheric setting of Langlois House, seen as it may have appeared in 1770, the ladies of Hamptonne will demonstrate wool spinning on the Jersey spindle wheel as spin the finest quality Jersey 3-ply yarn, used in the creation of Jersey stockings.

Learn about the rise and fall of the Jersey stocking knitting industry and of its significance in the Island’s history.

Using archive footage and modern-day interviews, Summer of Soul documents and examines the Harlem Cultural Festival and its impact. Over six Sundays in 1969, African American music and culture was celebrated by artists such as Stevie Wonder, Nina Simone, Gladys Knight and Sly and The Family Stone. This fascinating documentary explores the legacy of this extraordinary event and why it remains relatively unknown compared to other famous festivals of the time.
