Summer is here!

Enjoy your summer holiday at Swansea Museum! There will be crafty workshops every Thursday, garden games, and activities in the chill out space. We also have climate-controlled rooms, so it is the perfect place to escape the rain or the heat!

Have you tried our mouse trail?
We have 22 mice hidden around our museum. It is quite a challenge to find them all – will you become an expert mouse hunter?


Make sure to check out the RISW, who provide a regular program of lectures on a wide variety of subjects.
The RISW, or Royal Institution of South Wales, are the friends of the museum.
