Overview

Featuring over 100 items, including historical objects, artworks and new commissions, this will be the first museum survey to consider the complexity of this everyday substance and how it has come to be central to our perceptions of nutrition and “good health”. It will also look at the introduction of scientific principles into farming and motherhood, and ask what the future of milk might look like.

Milk is curated by Marianne Templeton and Honor Beddard.
