On Saturday, The Creative Core team spent a rather splendid evening with our friends at Derby Silk Mill in support of their first Enlightenment Ball.

The fundraising ball saw people come together for a glamourous event to celebrate Derby Museums’ amazing past, whilst raising vital funds for its future. 

The evening began with a drinks reception and a three course dinner by Chef Ralph Skripek, followed by an after dinner talk by Tony Butler, Executive Director of Derby Museums and a charity auction hosted by Charles Hanson, star of the BBC's Bargain Hunt, Antiques Road Trip and Flog it! 

The evening was rounded off with the team dancing to the swing band “That Old Swing Thing”.

A fantastic evening was had by all - thank you Derby Silk Mill!
