The 1990s was a time of transformation.
The mobile phone became mainstream and Britpop was taking over the radio. It was the era of Cool Britannia, New Labour and Spice Girl Mania. But what was going on in Basingstoke?
Basingstoke in the 90s is a nostalgic look over the decade through the eyes of our town. From dancing the night away at Martines, to mornings spent shopping in New Market Square, this exhibition interweaves stories and photographs from people living and working within the area.
Journey through the decade that saw the opening of the Anvil, the final years of the Basingstoke Carnival, and Tour de France tearing through the town. Let us take you down memory lane to relive the Basingstoke of the (not too distant) past.
This exhibition was co-curated by Willis Museum staff and created with support from the Newbury Building Society.
Please note this exhibition is situated in the Basingstoke Gallery, whcihis on the 1st floor and only accessible via stairs.
