Educational Resource

The Museum is designed to be a primarily educational experience which will appeal to all ages.

With this in mind the design will include:

• A Workshop, showing how fossil specimens are prepared

• Interpretation material giving the visitor an impression of what the specimens would have looked like in life using interactive displays and other media

• Materials to take away for school projects

• Regular exhibitions in the Meeting Hall

• Talks and workshops by the curator and visiting experts

• Field trips in and around Kimmeridge Bay

• Close cooperation with the Kimmeridge Marine Centre and other Centres and Museums along the Jurassic Coast encouraging connections beween educational programmes

• Volunteers to be trained and involved with the running of the museum giving information to visitors and enlivening their experience at the museum
