A new exhibition commemorating the 250th anniversary of one of the world’s most beloved hymns ‘Amazing Grace’ is to go on display at Wilberforce House Museum.
On display from Wednesday 23 August and to mark the International Day for the Remembrance of the Slave Trade, the touring exhibition will tell the story of former slave ship captain, Reverend John Newton, writer and composer of Amazing Grace, the curate-in-charge at St Peter & St Paul’s church in Olney, Buckinghamshire.
