Slater Museum has reinstalled all of its permanent exhibition galleries featuring new exhibitions and objects - typically, museums constantly spend time looking for ways to improve existing or introduce new exhibitions to keep the experience fresh and inviting to new visitors. Objects within our permanent collection are also rotated in and out to meet current exhibition goals. Any questions regarding exhibitions or the collections may be directed to the Museum Director.
