Derby Ram Trail Dates Confirmed for 2021

Derby Ram Trail Dates Confirmed for 2021

Derby Museums are excited to share a flock of famous faces in an animated re-telling of ‘The Derby Ram’. The poem anticipates the arrival of the Derby Ram Trail which we are delighted to announce has been rescheduled to 27 May - 22 August 2021.

Inspired by lantern slides from our collection, our collaborators read the 18th Century poem ‘The Derby Ram’, which tells the story of how people came from all over to see this magnificent beast. According to legend, this Ram was ten yards high with enormous horns and a huge flowing fleece - it's also the inspiration behind our Ram Trail! See if you can name some of the famous people featured in the poem before you get to the credits at the end of the piece.

We look forward to sharing further news and updates as we get back into planning this gorgeous family friendly art trail and to seeing you when it comes to Derby next year!
