Our museum tells the story of childhood in the Highlands exploring customs and traditions, education and toys and games.

We highly recommend applying to the Corriemoillie Training & Education Fund for assistance in developing personal and professional skills and knowledge.

On #IMD2020, we're thinking about the things we miss most when the museum is closed.

We have such a fantastic team of volunteers at HMOC and even though some of them are still volunteering from home, we really miss their support and friendship at this time.
