Our Main Galleries

Chemist Shop Gallery Plan In January 1974, Worcester City Museum bought the contents of Steward’s Chemist Shop from the Steward family, including all the fixtures and fittings, display units and shop stock (some of which dated back well over 100 years).
This gallery was converted to hold the display and this reconstruction is as identical as possible to the original shop - we have tried to show how Steward’s Chemist Shop would have looked in the early 1900s - the only feature that could not be added were the original shop windows - Preview & Interactive.

The Spirit of Enterprise
Gallery Plan

A fascinating exhibition exploring Worcester's industrious origins from the Roman potters and metal workers to the early part of the 20th century. Discover the secrets of Worcester Sauce, the strange remedies of the Victorian Chemist and the great engineers who conquered the world market and helped to make the City thrive - Preview.

Children's Activity Space
Gallery Plan

A space specially designed for younger visitors with lots to see and do - make a painting come to life by dressing up in replica costumes; create your own art work for the gallery; and be inspired by our special selection of children's' books.

Main Art Gallery

Two Art Galleries in the West Midlands are celebrating an influential artistic dynasty this spring.

Samuel Lines, the son of a Warwickshire school teacher, founded the Royal Birmingham Society of Artists and his sons followed in his footsteps. Many of the finest mid-nineteenth century British artists were taught and inspired by the Lines family.
