Playful Twilight at the Museum Graphics

This February half term join us for an after-hours museum adventure. Grab your torch and explore our collections after dark with our space-themed family trail.

Space Explorers

Wednesday 19 Feb, 5-7pm.

Free, drop-in. 

Ever since prehistoric painters used constellations to decorate rocks, people have always been interested in the moon, stars and planets. Explore the solar system with orreries, astrolabes and telescopes, check out globes of the moon and planets and invent your own constellation! 

 

If you can't attend our late Twilight opening, don't worry! Join us for the Space Explorers Trail on these additional half-term dates, starting at 3pm.
