£5 per child, adults go free. Sessions at 11am, 1pm and 3pm, each approximately 1.5 hours. Booking required.

Sunday 29th May - The final Doodle Day!

FREE ACTIVITY when you visit the museum - no need to book! Visit the museum today and join us for a day of doodling - big doodles, small doodles, wiggly doodles or any doodle you like.

Suitable for all ages. Museum admission £5 per adult, £3 for children over 5, under 5s free.

Monday 30th May - Messy Museum – the return of the LEGO!

Build, Build, Build! This relaxed and informal session sees you get stuck in with our giant collection of LEGO and Duplo to build to your hearts content. Although this session is aimed at children aged 6 and older a more relaxed Duplo space will be set up for little ones to explore if they are attending with older siblings. £5 per child, adults go free. Sessions at 11am, 1pm and 3pm, each approximately 1.5 hours. Booking required.

Wednesday 1st June - Music Museum - drums & percussion

Let’s get making - at Easter we made our own xylophones and guitars, and this time, it’s your chance to add some percussion into the mix! Join us for a crafty, messy, sticky, NOISY session. Suitable for all ages. £5 per child, adults go free. Sessions at 11am, 1pm and 3pm, each approximately 1.5 hours. Booking required.
