£210,000 grant for Spitfire display to help inspire visitors
Plans for the stunning new Spitfire gallery at the Potteries Museum and Art Gallery have received a further boost after being awarded £210,000 from a national grant.
The money comes after a successful bid to a joint funding pot run by the Department for Digital, Culture, Media and Sport (DCMS) in partnership with the Wolfson Foundation.
Further funding totalling £45,000 was also raised with help from Operation Spitfire, The Friends of the Potteries Museum and Art Gallery, and through visitors’ donations.
