Opens on 2 December 2025
Venue: Welcome Gallery Reading Museum
Step into Reading’s history with a special display of two stunning scale models – Jacksons’ Duke Street Stores and the iconic Jacksons Corner – shown together for the first time.
These intricately crafted models capture the store in its Edwardian heyday, celebrating a local landmark that first opened in 1875 and served generations until its closure in 2013.
Inspired by public memories, this exhibit is a heartfelt tribute to a beloved institution. Whether you shopped there, worked there, or just remember it fondly – come and reconnect with a piece of Reading’s heritage.
