Curator Tour: Bittersweet – The Story of Sugar in Sheffield

Wed 20 January 2027 , 2pm-2:45pm

Weston Park Museum

Join Lucy Cooper, Exhibitions and Displays Curator, for an introduction to the latest exhibition at Weston Park Museum.  

 

As she guides you around the displays, Lucy will talk through how the exhibition came together and share more stories of Sheffield’s history with sugar. You’ll discover a wide range of objects and archive material reflecting our connection with the sweet stuff, and you'll hear more about the bakers, confectioners and manufacturers who work in the industry today.  

This tour is part of the programme of events complementing the exhibition Bittersweet: The Story of Sugar in Sheffield which continues at Weston Park Museum until Sunday 7 November 2027.
