Keswick Museum & Art Gallery sits in Fitz Park near the Keswick to Threlkeld railway walking trail. The museum's exhibitions cover Keswick's history across several areas: the Keswick School of Industrial Arts, geology and natural history, Lakeland life, literature and fine art, and tourism in the town. It runs family activities and special events throughout the year. A new exhibition uses technology to let visitors connect with the local landscape.
