Here are some of the things
our visitors say about us!

As always, an absolute delight.

Marvellous exhibition – wish I could stay longer.

So nice to see a local man’s work on show.

Very informative – helped me with my project enormously.

The Museum and Library are a credit to the Town of Mere. It is impressive (to say the least) that history is preserved in this way, especially for Mere citizens.  Australia has nothing like this!
