Exhibitions
The Museum hosts a program of constantly changing temporary exhibitions on site. Recent exhibitions include "Hidden House Histories", detailing the history of objects hidden in houses as a form of superstition, and "The Women’s Royal Army Corps in Guildford", which covered the time the WRAC was headquartered in Guildford (1949–1992).
The current exhibition, entitled "A Few of My Favourite Things", features objects chosen by local people from the Museum's reserve collections. Guest Curators include Anne Milton MP, the Bishop of Guildford Christopher Hill and the High Sheriff of Surrey, Elizabeth Toulson. Objects on display include a 400,000 year old hand axe from Swanscombe in Kent, and a napkin used by Queen Elizabeth I which features her embroidered portrait and an image of St George slaying the Dragon.
