Relaxed Opening

We know that our museum can be loud and busy at times, so at 3pm, until we close at 5pm, we will put our lights on full and turn off all the sound effects, so it’s a less overwhelming environment for our visitors. You’ll still be able to visit all the galleries, but there will be no dark areas and no sudden sounds.

We will still have guides on Kirkgate in Victorian costume and we will still put on the films in the prison gallery, but we’ll warn you in advance if you are about to go into an area where a film may start suddenly. We’ll also have a quiet space available should you need it.

We hope to run these events once a month, so if you don’t get chance to look at everything on your first visit, not to worry. And remember, children can visit the museum for free with their adults!
