Your chance to see some of the weird, wonderful, and sometimes commonplace, objects that make up the social history, art, textiles, archaeology and archive collections cared for by Jersey Heritage.

Take a look at parts of the collections not currently on display at our visitor sites. Our Collections team will be available to talk to you about different objects, chosen from the hundreds of thousands of items they look after.

Tours of our Museum Collection Store will also be running at 10am alongside our September, October and December events. Get in touch with us at RegistrarTeam@jerseyheritage.org to book your space.
