‘You’d be pardoned if you were to say you weren’t aware of this archive. You might also be surprised to learn that it has been a central part of the collections at Cultra since the very formation of the museum [Ulster Folk Museum].’

Our Museums+Heritage Award-nominated blended learning programme ‘Museum on the Move’ still has some space for primary schools to book onto in 2024/25. Shortlisted for ‘Learning Programme of the Year’, don’t put off applying for your school to take part!
