OLYMPIANS have found a new home at The Story Museum in Pembroke Street, Oxford.
Statues covered with gold, silver and bronze leaf, made by Oxford artist Francesca Shakespeare, have just arrived in time for a series of Greek events for children aged seven to 11.
Mrs Shakespeare said: “We’re going to make armour, ‘tell-tale togas’ illustrating Greek myths and medals to take home.”
