Do you send postcards? In the late 1800’s, postcards were an affordable, vital means of communication, long before the ease of sending holiday snaps on your phone! Wish You Were Here celebrates the hundreds of postcards in the South Ayrshire Collection, from well-kent local landmarks to sunny days on the bustling beaches. You’ll see original postcards and large scale projections, and maybe even have a go at designing your own postcard!

This image depicts a dark wooden cabinet with a variety of unusual and intriguing objects displayed on its shelves. The title "CABINET of CURIOSITIES" is prominently shown to the left, along with the text "An exhibition of curious objects from the South Ayrshire collection." The cabinet contains objects such as a taxidermied bird, a wooden sculpture of a strange, open-mouthed creature, an old-fashioned deep-sea diving helmet, a painting of a sailing ship, and a small model ship. A single hanging lamp with a warm glow illuminates the scene. The overall tone is mysterious and vintage, evoking a sense of historical discovery.
