Scunthorpe Museum Society
Hello and Welcome!
The Scunthorpe Museum Society (SMS) was founded in 1957 to encourage and support an active interest in the North Lincolnshire Museum and Art Gallery. The Society also aimed to enable learning in a wide range of interests for local people. There are currently three sections of the society: Scunthorpe Museum Art Group, Local History and Archaeology Section and The Natural History (including Ornithology) and Geology Section.
Over the years the Society has part funded many activities for the North Lincolnshire Museum.

Scunthorpe Museum Society
Scunthorpe Museum Society was created in 1957. There were multiple sections of the society initially but these have since reduced to three groups; Arts, Local History and Archaeology, and Natural History and Geology. Each group works independently and runs its own society but the Local History and Archaeology, and Natural History and Geology share the same venue to meet between September - April at Old Brumby United Church Hall on Monday evenings. Only one meeting is held in December where all sections come together for a social event. Please note there is a membership fee of £15 per year except the Art section who pay per meeting. Meetings are all advertised on the website.
