The Development of the Darwin Centre at the Natural History Museum – Graham Pellow

Graham was a director in the Natural History Museum for 10 years, firstly as Estates Director and later as Project Director for the Darwin Centre, the largest development on the museum site since it was built in 1880.

Graham will give an insight into working with some of the 350 museum scientists to develop a building both able to safeguard the world class collections and uniquely allow members of the public to visit the collection and working spaces.  He will also shed light on some of the spaces and operations within the museum which the public are mostly unaware of and never see – and will share some personal stories of both good and bad events during his time there.
