Expo 'De Internationale Vliegweek in Temse, 1912'


De zomerexpo van de beheerraad van het Gemeentemuseum is in de regel gewijd aan een historische benadering van een typisch Temses onderwerp. Voor 2012 is de Vliegweek het voor de hand liggende thema. De raad van beheer was van in het begin één van de grote bezielers van de viering van het evenement en heeft als dusdanig een belangrijke functie als (pro)motor vervuld. De expo 'De Internationale Vliegweek in Temse, 1912' loopt van 30 juni tot 30 september.

De expo is vrij toegankelijk op zaterdag en zondag van 14 tot 18 u., zondag ook van 10 tot 12 u.
