As of 17 May 2021, the museum reopened its doors. The museum closed temporarily in 2019 for a £4 million refurbishment, while the museum conference centre and car park remained open, and remained closed because of the COVID-19 pandemic. In October 2020 it was announced that the museum was to receive £370,000 from the Culture Recovery Fund to help it to re-open safely. In December 2020 the museum's conference centre was used as a COVID-19 vaccination hub. The redeveloped museum has since been shortlisted for Art Fund's Museum of the Year award 2021. (en)
