Exploring a different theme each week, join our Engagement team to learn some of the fascinating facts and surprising stories behind our collections. Get hands on with real museum objects, take part in a practical demonstration, or have a go at a quick craft activity. The location of our Find Out Friday activities changes each week according to the theme – please ask a member of staff for more information on the day.
Free, drop-in sessions every Friday afternoon during term time 13:30 – 16:00.
