Museum & Art Swindon

Museum & Art Swindon is a cultural institution dedicated to sharing Swindon’s collections and connecting people with the town’s history, art and creativity. Its holdings include thousands of objects, specimens, artworks and pieces of ephemera collected from the early 1900s to the present. Visitors can explore collection highlights, discover a featured item of the month, and experience permanent and special exhibition programmes spanning heritage and contemporary art.

The museum offers activities and resources for schools, families, home educators, community groups and young people, alongside workshops, tours, object-handling sessions and community engagement programmes. Visitors can also use the Bloomberg Connects guide and take part in group visits. The museum shop sells gifts, books, clothing and limited-edition items, while the organisation welcomes donations and volunteers to help support its collections and work.

Museum & Art Swindon is open Tuesday to Saturday, 10:30am to 4:30pm, and closed on Mondays and Sundays. Based at the Civic Offices on Euclid Street, it invites visitors to discover, enrich, celebrate and be inspired by Swindon’s cultural heritage.
