Sammelschwerpunkte/Main collections
The recent refurbishment has greatly contributed to the flow within the museum, taking visitors seamlessly from the impressive gallery space through the collections of Mauchline Ware, Cumnock pottery and other important items of local interest, showing the rich industrial heritage of the area. The dedicated Kier Hardie room has been redisplayed and includes fun and informative interactives as well as many of Hardie’s personal belongings.
The Research Room provides access to archives; audio visual material; books; maps; museum collections; newspapers and photographs.
The Baird will host a changing programme of museum displays and touring exhibitions. The well informed and attentive Visitor Services Assistant, singled out by Visit Scotland, adds greatly to the visitor experience.
