SUMMARY:Visit Little Malvern Priory (Heritage Open Days)
DESCRIPTION:The painted glass in the East Window portrays Edward V and his family – one of only two portrayals in existence. \nThe history of the Priory can be traced back to the 12th century when it was established as a small Benedictine community of about fifteen monks under the control of Worcester Cathedral. \nThe most famous of the Episcopal Visitations was that undertaken by Bishop Alcock in 1480\, when he found ‘the great ruin of the Church and place’\, and when he discharged the Prior and monks ‘by reasons of their demerits’. According to his own account they ‘builded their Church and put their place of lodging’ into a sufficient state of repair so that the monks were able to return to their Priory in 1482\, having spent two years under correction at Gloucester Abbey. \nBishop Alcock was the tutor to Edward V\, with his brother the Duke of York\, one of the Princes in the Tower. The East window of the Priory portrays Edward V and other members of his family – one of only two portrayals of him. \nFor full details\, visit the Heritage Open Days website. \nTimings\nThursday 17 September 2026: 2pm – 4pm\nFriday 18 September 2026: 2pm – 4pm\nSaturday 19 September 2026: 2pm – 4pm

SUMMARY:Exhibition: Romancing the 18th Century from Rococo to Stage
DESCRIPTION:Exhibition opens Friday 29 May and runs until Saturday 26 September 2026 \nIn collaboration with the Malvern Theatre Players\, this exhibition will combine the museum’s collection with costume. \nWith the recent success of other exhibitions at the V&A focusing on Mary Antoinette\, both the real woman and the 2006 film\, we take a closer at look at why this period is so often romanticised. \nFrom extreme silhouette to powered wigs\, why can’t we get enough of 18th century fashion? \nThe Museum of Fashion Malvern is open every Friday and Saturday\, 10am – 4pm.
