Residents invited to help shape the future of Lancaster City Museums
People across the district are being encouraged to have their say on plans to redevelop Lancaster City Museum and the King's Own Royal Regiment Museum – shaping how the city’s story is told for generations to come.
Lancaster City Museum will host a public consultation drop-in event today, Friday May 15, from 11am to 1pm.
Visitors will have the chance to meet architects, exhibition designers and museum staff, and view early ideas on the museum’s future plans.
The feedback gathered will play a key role in a future bid to secure funding for the redevelopment of the museum, which aims to be a more accessible, modern and engaging space while safeguarding Lancaster’s rich heritage.
Lancaster City Museum, housed in the city’s historic former town hall, tells the story of the district from prehistoric times to the present day, bringing to life the people, events and industries that have shaped the area.
By taking part in the consultation, residents can help ensure the museum continues to reflect the stories, voices and experiences that matter most to the local community.
A short, online survey is also available for those who cannot attend to share their views.
