TT8 - Science Museum Blythe House


Abstract:
Technical visit to the Science Museum reserve collections, West Kensington The Science Museum, London, is part of the National Museum of Science and Industry. It was officially founded in 1909 but its origins go back to the Great Exhibition of 1851. Since then many more objects have been acquired than can be displayed at any one time in the Museum’s galleries at South Kensington. The bulk of the reserve collections are stored in Blythe House, a large office complex built about 1900 that was converted for museum use in the late 1970s. You will see the extensive undisplayed holdings for the Sound Reproduction, Acoustics, and Telecommunications collections.

Capacity limited to 20 persons. Short walk from Novotel.

Technical Tours are made available on a first come, first served basis. Tickets can be purchased during normal registration hours at the convention center.
