Event details

Explore the history of Museum & Art Swindon, through items collected from its beginnings until today. Each object and artwork in Origins tells a story about the people, ideas and collecting histories that have shaped the museum.  The exhibition also reveals changing values around the purpose, spaces and collections of museums.  As such, it is a changing exhibition, which will transform with public input, community projects and as new items enter our collections.
