From grow your own to celebrity chefs, school dinners to Sunday roasts – a new, free family exhibition curated by Museums Sheffield will take a look at food's place at the heart of British culture.

Exploring the world of our relationship with all things edible, Food Glorious Food is a family-friendly exhibition which tells the stories that lie behind what we choose to eat. Exploring the journey from field to fork, Food Glorious Food will draw from Museums Sheffield's collections of 'Social History', 'Visual Art' and 'Decorative Art'. Budding cooks of all ages will enjoy our eclectic displays of labour saving gadgets, historic culinary devices and unusual recipes, before delving into our larder, stocked with interesting food stories and nostalgic packaging. Little green fingers will be kept busy in our vegetable patch play area, while our special ‘food phones’ will allow visitors to listen to and share their own food likes, dislikes and memories.
