Group Visits

Enjoy a relaxed visit to the museum on a weekday with your group. As the museum is closed to general visitors during the week, group visitors will have the chance to visit whilst the museum and gardens team and volunteers, continue their work. You may catch a glimpse of conservation in action or groups of volunteers working on a particular project. You’ll have the chance to see us under informal circumstances and glimpse the behind-the scenes work that takes place during the week.

• Dedicated visit host for your group
