October Family Fun |
|
|
Our new Poster Girls exhibition will be brought to life for children this half-term, with related family-friendly activities taking place throughout the holiday. Join us from 21-29 October for storytime sessions about a little monster’s adventure into the world of a magic poster, and make-and-take craft activities, where youngsters can create their own story book inspired by an artwork from the exhibition. On Saturday 28 October there will be a SEN Early Explorer Morning for families with special educational needs to enjoy the Museum at a quieter time. |

Hidden London: Clapham South screenings |
|

We have some Clapham South: Subterranean Screenings tours up for grabs from 18 to 22 October. Cosy up under a blanket in one of eight deep-level shelters that exist across London to watch a bespoke WW2 film reel curated by London Transport Museum. In this unique setting you’ll learn about the realities of being a Londoner during the Second World War through fascinating first hand oral histories from people that actually sheltered here during the V-weapon raids, Ministry of Information propaganda films and newsreel clips of the day. |

Hidden London - limited tickets available for Clapham South tours |

Due to popular demand, an extra date (Saturday 28 October) has been added to our Clapham South: Subterranean Shelter tours. Explore one of eight deep-level shelters that exist across London. Opened to the public in July 1944, Clapham South deep-level shelter has over a mile of subterranean passageways that reveal the extraordinary stories of those who sheltered here, from Londoners seeking refuge during the Blitz, to Caribbean migrants arriving on the Empire Windrush. |
