Love My Object
What would you save if the museum was on fire?
Bridport Museum’s volunteers have displayed some special objects around Bridport for you to discover.
Everyone has a special thing. A family heirloom, your first Teddy Bear or perhaps a piece of jewellery. Anyone can see what it is, but why would you save that, and only that particular item from a fire?
The Museum Volunteers were asked this same question, with the twist that they could only choose something from the collection!
You can find the first Love My Object displays at Bridport Library, Bridport Leisure Centre and in the Museum from Tuesday 5th April.
Why not get involved by scanning the QR code and telling the Museum about the special object you’d save from a fire?
Alternatively, share a picture on social media and tag them on Twitter @bridportmuseum or Instagram @bridport_museum, using the hashtags #LoveMyObject and #TheRightStuff
Love My Object is part of the Museum’s community project ‘The Right Stuff’, which asks some tricky questions – Why do we have certain things? Should we have them? If not, where should they go? Find out more about the project by visiting their website www.bridportmuseum.co.uk.

Event Details
A series of photographs by Nathaniel Sesay
Nathaniel Sesay, aka Mash P, was born in Taiama, Southern Sierra Leone. When he was nine years old he was captured by rebels and forced to fight in Sierra Leone’s brutal civil war. After the war, rejected by family, he lived on the streets of Freetown for 12 years
Mash took up photography in 2018 and began taking photographs on Bume Dirty Box, the biggest rubbish dump in Freetown where many families scrape an existence. He followed a young boy called Mamadu who was the same age as Mash was when he was captured. The images give an honest and authentic portrayal of life on the dump, not just the misery but also the joy.
He has had exhibitions in London, Manchester and Portland, USA.
Eight years ago Mash found the charity WAYout and recorded an album ‘Mr President’, playing a mixture of Afrobeat and dance hall. ‘Music brings me peace’, he says, and his music has become increasingly upbeat with dance music alongside the more serious tracks like ‘After the Jungle’ which features Frank Turner.
He now has a Global Talent Visa and 3-year Resident’s Permit to study and work in the UK. He wants to be accepted for his talent not rejected for his past.
You can support Mash P through his Patreon link here.
