Community outreach is important to us.

We work with a number of community groups on a long-term basis, as well as providing one-off opportunities for organisations.

The work we do with community groups varies. Sometimes, we work in partnership with arts organisations on specific projects, using our collection and environment as inspiration, while at other times we might host regular visits from groups.

Previous projects have included a poetry project with a small group of male refugees, textile projects with South Asian women, and creative writing and art sessions with young people.

Some community groups and charities enjoy one-off visits on an annual basis. We're always happy to facilitate visits and work out the best programme depending on circumstances and budget.

If you'd like to talk to our Outreach Officer about bringing your group to the Museum or about us visiting you - or if you have a project in mind -please contact [email protected] with the subject line 'Outreach'.
