Museum Stores Open Day

Beacon Business Park, Weston Road, Stafford, Staffordshire, ST18 0WL

Come along and see behind the scenes of the stored museum collections. Meet the experts, try out hands-on activities and view the fascinating stored collections of Staffordshire social history, costume, art and rural life.

This is a self guided visit but staff and volunteers will be on hand to highlight the treasures, direct you around the site and answer any questions. As it is a working site, please note that you should not bring any food or drink, large bags or wet umbrellas inside the stores to help protect the collections.

The upper floor are only accessible via steps. Toilets are available on request and staff can direct you. It is a short walk between the two stores.
