Activities & Mission

St Ives Museum is an independent, volunteer-run museum. We aim to enable both the local community and visitors to St Ives to discover more about the town's varied history and heritage, from fishing and mining to art, industry and more. This is done by combining traditional exhibits with modern interactive displays, and exhibitions. Our permanent collection maintains a living record of St Ives.
