Autumn Update 2024

Written By Friends

The nights drawing in and the weather turning chillier signals the time is fast approaching when the Friends will close the Ship Centre to the public for the winter. Your last opportunity to visit in 2024 is Saturday 2nd November. The Ship Centre will open to the public again in spring 2025.

Coming up soon in October will be our AGM on Saturday 19th October 2024. Programme:

2:30 - 3:30 pm Seafarers, a life choice or necessity? by guest speaker Rufus Noy

3:30 - 4:00pm Refreshment break

4:00 - 5:00pm AGM

Although the Ship Centre will be closed over the winter you can still follow our journey and discover more about the Newport Medieval Ship via our social media and web site. The latter is currently undergoing a refresh and will be launched in the not too distant future.
