This wonderful exhibition is on the Newtown Library, Park Street. (Check opening times)

The Exhibition travels through the wonderful life of Newtown Born - Robert Owen and marks the 200th Anniversary of Robert Owen purchasing 20,000 acers of land in New Harmony, Indianna, USA.

On Thurs 1st May Newtown residents had a LIVE ZOOM link with New Harmony for over an hour and amongst the speakers was a descendant of Robert Owen. It was wonderful to speak to each other, I'm sure there will be many more opportunities too.

Call into the Library and have a browse & read through his magnificant life.

Can we have some Feedback please? Did you find the Boards really Interesting?? It's AMAZING what Newtown born Robert Owen did world breaking pioneering work that is part of our everyday life even NOW!! Has your School done a project on Robert Owen to tell his Story.
Pop along & have a read of his wonderful life - from Newtown, Scotland then over in the USA in New Harmony in Indianna.
