Open Day
Saturday 27 July - 10.30am-16.30pm
Join us for the day, each year, when we share our collection with the local community. You will find out how mechanical musical instruments work and sound and how they fit into the history of sound production.  The event will feature mini-tours of the collection, street instruments outside on the lawn (weather permitting) and demonstrations of the Mighty Wurlitzer organ in the concert hall.

The history of the Mighty Wurlitzer, celebrating its 90th Birthday this year, is explored in a new exhibition.  Children’s activities include a gallery trail and craft table. Refreshments available all day.
Free entry, donations to support the collection welcome
