Learning at the Museum

The museum is committed to supporting an innovative learning programme that engages people of all ages.

The museum currently has no Learning Officer in post, due to this we are unable to offer workshop sessions with schools. We will have an update on the post following the Easter Half Term break.

We are currently able to provide self-lead museum visits and school loans boxes, for further information about our loans boxes and resources please click here.

If you have any enquiries or would like to arrange a self-led museum visit please contact museum@northdevon.gov.uk
