The building is now closed for Birmingham City Council’s ongoing essential maintenance work, including electrical work, upgrading the heating, roof repairs and the replacement of lifts.

We plan to reopen the museum sometime in 2024 - exact date to be confirmed.

On-site taught sessions are not available at Birmingham Museum and Art Gallery during the closure period. However we are offering Online Sessions for Key Stage 1 and 2 on Ancient Egypt, Ancient Greece, and Ancient Rome.
