At Ripon Museum Trust, we regularly programme exhibitions across our three museums to shine a light on new and interesting stories connected to their history, or the lives of the people who passed through the workhouse, prison or courthouse. We also explore issues surrounding our themes of law and order, creating opportunities for partnerships and new artistic commissions.
