Exhibitions at the city art gallery attracted record numbers last year.
Council papers show that Worcester City Museum and Art Gallery’s I Grew Up 80s exhibition brought in the venue’s highest July footfall since performance records began.
“The summer programme now has a reputation for an enjoyable multi-generational experience, which is particularly appealing to local residents,” the council’s Joint Museums Committee heard.
The Paint the Streets exhibition, which ran alongside Worcester Paint Festival, attracted above-average footfall for an autumn show.
It has only been beaten by the Canaletto display at that time of the year.
