Paper Mache, Cabbages and Kingstreet | The Unofficial Stretford Museum | 25th-28th June
Kicking off the second wave of takeovers at The Unofficial Stretford Museum is "Paper Mache, Cabbages and Kingstreet" with a fascinating pop-up museum dedicated to the Bee Gees and Andy Gibb.
Curated by Hazel, a member of the Gibb family herself, this unique exhibition brings together rare memorabilia, personal stories and forgotten connections that reveal why Stretford holds a special place in the band's journey.
