400 Reasons Exhibition
A bright and bold response to a very simple question – “Why Do You Like Scarborough?”
This exhibition celebrates the power of communication between children and adults from across our community, bringing together voices from different settings and experiences to share what makes Scarborough special.
At a time when the world can often feel divided, this collaborative project shines a light on the positive, using Scarborough’s 400th anniversary as an opportunity to celebrate the places, spaces and stories that connect us.
The responses in the exhibition were gathered, curated and designed by local artists myself and Amy [email protected]_, working alongside the Scarborough Museums and Galleries Learning Team.

Opening Saturday 26th September
