Momart, specialist art storage and transport service, are currently working in Devon with the Plymouth Museum and Art Gallery to move all of the exhibits out. This is called the decant. Next, the exhibits are safely stored. And this will be until 2020 when the newly extended History Centre is ready. When the building work is complete, the exhibits will return.
