We have a huge selection of exciting events for families coming up at the Museum. During half term enter the world of the Celts with activities inspired by our exhibition Celts: art and identity. There are further Celts-inspired events at the end of November, with pop-up chess and more. You can also get creative with our free drawing and printing workshops as part of The Big Draw. Finally, the Days of the Dead family festival promises to be a colourful extravaganza of food, entertainment and Mexican-themed fun!
