Events at The Armitt 2026

At The Armitt, we host a variety of talks, tours, and workshops centred around our collections and the local area. This year, our events complement our newest exhibitions including:

An A-Z of Beatrix Potter

Club Culture Cumbria

Modern-day Martineau

We also offer events centred around local history such as our monthly Armitt Talk Series and our Heritage Walks. Most events are held in our beautiful library which is the perfect place to learn something new from our wide variety of talks or create something inspired by our vast collections.

Every time you book an event with us, you are supporting The Armitt as a small, independent museum and charity. All funds are directly used to keep us open and help to build our programmes each year.
