After almost 100 years in Peak Buildings, the museum is moving. The buildings been a hotel, hospital and museum. What next?
We’re committed to Buxton Museum and Art Gallery’s future, and while announcing today it will leave its Peak Buildings base we’re actively looking for a new home in the town. And developing a great interim service. ow.ly/IGvL50RRpho

We recently had a visit from artist #WilliamHull's descendants🎨 They came after seeing Hull's paintings on our #Instagram and were surprised to find 8 paintings, 1 sketch book and 3 bound volumes of illustrated letters in the #MuseumCollection🤩 A wonderful shared experience!

We are proud to be mentioned in @AmyLShakespeare's article on #repatriation in this month's @MuseumsAssoc journal. Lots of us have done really positive work on returning objects, despite the national narrative.

An interesting day packing up bones of extinct animals. This wolf species became extinct in Britain around 500 years ago. All bones found in the #PeakDistrict. Not my usual day at the museum.
