Shetland's Story is Your Story

Shetland Museum and Archives is committed to ensuring that our permanent exhibits best reflect the rich history and vibrant culture of Shetland. As part of our ongoing efforts to update and improve our galleries, we would value your feedback on how the story of Shetland should continue be told.
Your insights will help us shape the future of our exhibits and enhance the museum experience for all visitors. We invite you to share your thoughts on how the museum functions as a space for visitors and what changes you would like to see in the displays in the upper and lower galleries.
