Welcome to the local museum of Islington, where we aim to bring the history of our borough to life for everyone who lives, works, or visits here! We’re a museum for the community, and we want to represent your stories through our collection. So come by for a visit and share your Islington memories!
Check out our exhibitions, events, and projects to see what’s on in the museum.
