Motopia? Past Future Visions

Guest volunteer blogs.

We asked Seth Burgess, a third year university student currently studying history at Bournemouth, to write a few blogs on themes related to the Motopia? Past Future Visions exhibition.

The blogs are Seth’s views and don’t necessarily represent the views and opinions of the National Motor Museum.

Bournemouth student Seth Burgess

I am currently a 3rd year university student currently studying history at Bournemouth. For the last few months, I have been volunteering at Beaulieu, helping with various collections and getting an understanding of how a museum works.

I have been a fan of cars and motorsport for some time now and as I have got older, I have learnt to appreciate classic cars far more for their historical significance. I am very grateful for this opportunity and appreciative of the hospitality I have received whilst being at the museum.
