'Memories of Vauxhall's factory floor' hosted by Luton Made: Vauxhall
Wardown Park Museum, Old Bedford Road, Luton, Bedfordshire, LU2 7HA
As part of this year’s Heritage Open Day celebrations, we’re inviting you to join us for an afternoon of local heritage as we explore Vauxhall’s 120 years in the town.
Luton Made: Vauxhall is a National Lottery Heritage Funded project celebrating the history of Vauxhall Motors in Luton. This free event offers a chance to learn more about the project, explore the stories we’ve gathered so far and contribute your own.
What to expect:
- An introduction to the Luton Made: Vauxhall project
- A display of photographs and objects from Vauxhall’s past
- An interactive memory sharing table, inviting you to bring your own thoughts and objects to the discussion
- A chance to vote on what you’d like to see in our future exhibition
- A chance to hear stories and memories from former Vauxhall employees
Whether you’re a former employee, have a family connection or are simply interested in Luton’s industrial past, all are welcome.
