There's a whole other world behind some of the doors at The Box and a lot more to see besides our galleries and exhibitions!
Join a member of our archives team on selected dates throughout the year for a fascinating glimpse of life behind the scenes in our research room, basement and stores.
This is a chance to learn more about how we manage and protect our collections and why, in creating The Box, it was so important to bring Plymouth’s most historically significant archives together under one roof, along with the permanent collections from the former City Museum and Art Gallery.
Advance booking is essential here.
