The Museum is very much focused on working with groups across the community, from local schools to Cub troops, via reminiscence groups, artists' societies, archaeological associations and many others.

This dynamic museum and art gallery contains a fascinating mix of permanent displays of local art and artefacts.  Let the exquisite Buxton watercolours take you back to the turn of the Century.  Savour the delicate beauty of the Pinxton procelain.  Discover a new green world in the hands on XplorActive environment gallery.  A child-friendly atmosphere encourages visits by younger people and their carers. Changing exhibitions aimed at all sectors of local society aim to keep the Museum a relevant player in Mansfield's cultural life.

Education in its broadest sense is a core activity, driving aspects as diverse as our loans service; Growing Bolder, our programme for those 55 and over and ArtBeat, our wide ranging holiday workshops for children of all ages
