Peace - Farewell to Arms?
This gallery is located within the War Gallery.
Farewell to Arms? has been created in conjunction with The Peace Museum, Bradford. It focuses on the idea of CONVERSION – from war to peace, from weapons and armour to useful tools or symbolic images.
The display explores the positive changes that have been – and are still being – made by individuals, groups and whole nations that choose to replace conflict with peace.
This is only a small selection of the items you can see in the gallery on the 2nd floor of the museum in Leeds.
