The Box

The Box is Ply­mouth’s award-win­ning muse­um, art gallery and archive.

A place where heritage meets contemporary art and archives meet interaction. A museum, gallery and archive. A Kitchen & Bar. A shop. A space for research. A place that you can make your own, and where there's always something new to discover.

The Box brings six outstanding collections of art, human history, natural history, film, photography and archival material together, showcased in a series of exciting spaces.

Our current exhibitions include ‘Planet Ocean’ (throughout 2024) which explores our relationship with the sea, highlights some of the vital research that is taking place in and around Plymouth and offers hope about how we can protect the ocean for the future.

Our next major exhibition is 'The Time is Always Now: Artists Reframe the Black Figure' (28 Jun-29 Sep) featuring some of the hottest names in contemporary art.

Talks, family activities and special events are also on offer throughout the year.

The Box's standard opening hours are 10am-5pm Tuesday to Sunday and selected bank holidays.
