Members of the public are invited to take a ‘special highlights tour’ of South Shields Museum & Art Gallery.
A social history curator is set to give members of the public an in-depth look into the stories of South Tyneside.
Adam Bell is set to host a ‘special highlights tour’ at the South Shields Museum & Art Gallery, on Ocean Road, at 2pm on Friday, August 14.


The tour promises to be a “fascinating insight” into the history and stories of the people from the borough.
Organisers have confirmed that Adam’s tour will cover both of South Shields Museum & Art Gallery’s permanent and changing exhibitions.
Those who take part will also be given a sneak peek behind the scenes into the fine art store at the museum.
Tickets for the tour cost just £5.35 for adults (including a booking fee) and donations to the museum are welcome.
