Sevenoaks museum is part of Sevenoaks Kaleidoscope (library, museum and art gallery). The museum has the same opening hours as the library and has something for everyone:
• Quizzes, activity sheets and crafts for children
• A film about the town's history or one about our current exhibition
• Changing temporary exhibitions
• Displays of local interest, for example hop-picking, World War 2, cricket
• Objects to handle with Braille labels
• An oral history telephone to listen to a blacksmith, a brewer and a veterinary assistant
• A programme of events and activities.
Bring your Class
Schools visits are welcome. Please contact the Curator to discuss the needs of a particular class. We have objects that children can handle and activity sheets for trails and observation in the museum.
Study our Objects
We have about 3,000 objects, both on display and in our store. These include local archaeology and fossils, World War 1 and 2 artefacts, local photographs and paintings, tools of the blacksmith's, printer's, tailor's and other trades and more. Visitors and researchers are welcome to book an appointment to see and handle these.
