after so many years, I have finally paid my respects to the main attraction in #Leeds.
this one:
#LeedsCityMuseum
Can only wear one Leeds themed t-shirt tomorrow...

💀WORLD GOTH DAY IS CREEPING CLOSER🦇
World Goth Day is almost upon us, and the city can’t ignore it now. The banner is outside the museum! It made my little goth heart happy.
🗓️ World Goth Day – May 22

A 1.5m high copy of Miffy in the Tent with a white rabbit looking out of a yellow triangular tent.
A woman looking out of a triangular yellow tent that looks like a cartoon drawing. There is also a big wooden tree with a round top.
Woman in pink top and black/white skirt standing next to a painted cartoon like pond with 3 flat ducks in front of painted trees.
12 copies of Miffy at the Beach in different languages showing a white cartoon rabbit with red swimsuit bottoms.
Great exhibition at Leeds City Museum about Miffy the rabbit who is 70 years old. #miffy #nintje #leedscitymuseum
An introduction panel to an exhibition "This exhibition explores attitudes to death from a round the world, and highlights the diverse ways in which people experience death, dying, and bereavement"
A wooden tree hung with paper leaves written with memories of lost loved ones by visitors to the museum.
Loved going to see the Leeds #museum Living with Death. It's not an expensive showstopper but it's so well thought out, emotive, relevant, current, and powerful. And has such good interventions for reflection.
