Spring has arrived at the Bath-based American Museum and Gardens with swathes of daffodils to greet visitors who turned up today at Claverton Manor for this year’s opening.

Bath Newseum was there last night for a glamourous preview of this season’s spectacular new exhibition which – in fashion and photographs – takes us back to 1930’s America.

Here’s more from the Museum’s senior curator, Kate Hebert.

There is also information about opening times for the house and gardens and ticket information.

With its remarkable collection of folk and decorative arts, the Museum shows the diverse and complex nature of American traditions.

The only museum of Americana outside the United States, it was founded to bring American history and cultures to the people of Britain and Europe.
