October Half Term at Barnsley Museums

There are lots of spectacularly spooky activities to try this half term...

Other Trails

Relaxed opening at Experience Barnsley Museum & The Cooper Gallery - 2 November

Come along to our relaxed openings, which are designed for visitors who would prefer a quieter experience in the museum. Interactives and audio will be turned down or off to create a quieter experience for visitors who prefer it. 

There are a small number of interactives that are on motion sensors and cannot be turned off. We can never guarantee how quiet or busy the Museum might be during these sessions, however, we will not book in any groups or school visits during these days. 

There is seating provided around the museum should you need it. Sensory backpacks and sunflower lanyards are available from the front desk if you would like to borrow any for the duration of your visit. 

More accessibility information can be found on our website
