Welcome to the Story Museum

One day the Story Museum will be a real museum celebrating children’s literature and storytelling in the heart of Oxford. At the moment we’re a ‘virtual’ museum, taking story performances, exhibitions, activities and ideas to children and their adults.

We believe that stories are an important part of being human and that spoken and written stories are especially important for young humans. So we’re developing and sharing 1001 enjoyable, memorable ways to inspire and help children to learn through stories as they grow.

A cake to celebrate the announcement of the Story MuseumWe now have a real home! Click here for more details. Meanwhile our website is soon to be transformed. Do visit us again soon when we shall have lots more to tell you about this new chapter in our story. 

“A wonderful gift from Oxford, where so many stories have begun, to the whole world.”

Philip Pullman CBE
