About the museum

We are Nuneaton Museum & Art Gallery.  Our building is set in the beautiful surroundings of Riversley Park in the Warwickshire town of Nuneaton.

The museum hosts an exciting programme of over 20 temporary exhibitions a year. The permanent displays include objects from the Social History and Fine Art collections. There is also a recently refurbished permanent display on local writer George Eliot.

The museum offers a range of family activities throughout the year from museum trails and worksheets to creative activities during school holidays. Many of the temporary and permanent exhibitions contain interactive learning and creative elements for all age groups. To see what’s on at the museum please visit our website https://www.nuneatonandbedworth.gov.uk/museum. If you have an enquiry, please email the museum at museum@nuneatonandbedworth.gov.uk.

The museum is actively involved with the local community through outreach projects. This can include using our collection to inspire reminiscence sessions, gather oral history and participate in local history projects by working in partnership with local groups and volunteers.

With the creation of ‘Behind the Scenes at Nuneaton Museum’ we aim to improve awareness and accessibility of the services we provide. We hope that you will find the content interesting and feel inspired to contribute to, or create discussions by commenting on our blog entries.

Nuneaton Museum & Art Gallery is operated by Nuneaton and Bedworth Borough Council.
