Learn at Perth Museum

The new Museum will have a dedicated learning and activity space for school, community, and educational groups.

Our Learning team have been busy developing and testing new tours, interactive workshops, and activities for schools, families, and educational groups of all ages, interests, and abilities.

From Picts to Victorians, from world cultures to local studies, from science to storytelling, Perth Museum will have everything your group needs to explore Scotland’s story.

Learning and community groups will be welcome to visit the entire Museum including the permanent galleries, temporary exhibitions, and the Stone of Destiny.
