We are excited to announce the second instalment of the Historical Costumed Dolls exhibition and while we are sad to say goodbye to characters such as Diana and Nicholas, we welcome Bonnie Prince Charlie, Madame de Pompadour and Nell Gwynn. 

These historical costumed dolls cover the period 1610 to 1775 and will be on display until the beginning of December when the third and final instalment will take centre stage.

This new exhibition has been developed to highlight the work by the team on creating the new Scottish Co-operative Discovery Centre at the old co-op bakery building in West Calder. 

The exhibition tells the story of the Scottish Co-operative Movement and displays items associated with the co-op in West Lothian and beyond including commemorative objects and items that would have been sold in store. 

Help required! 

The Scottish Co-operative Discovery Centre team need your help.  

They are looking for your stories and memories of the co-op or if you have any photos or objects connected to the co-op that you might consider donating. 

If you can help, please email museums@westlothian.gov.uk.  Thank you. 😊  

Linlithgow Museum, in partnership with the Learning & Inclusion Team at Historic Environment Scotland, are delighted to display a new exhibit of some of the objects in its collection (and some from Linlithgow Palace), made entirely out of LEGO!😁

Built over the course of a weekend by members of the public (over 110 people aged from 5 to 65), these amazing LEGO models will be on display at the museum from Thursday 24 October through to Sunday 24 November.

Don’t miss your chance to see these unique LEGO models and appreciate the hard work by our enthusiastic workshop attendees who did a stellar job! 😎🤩
