Events and activities
Explore a jam-packed programme of activities and events, from meeting daring Knights at our Medieval Day to celebrating Pride Month - there's sure to be something for everyone!
Creative sessions have been designed especially for early years, families and adults in a way which brings the Collection to life.
You’ll be able to enjoy activities like art sessions to learn more about how pieces are made or create your own masterpiece. Taking inspiration from objects within our Collection, you can immerse yourself in a storytelling session where the works of art take the lead role.
There are also daily volunteer-led tours, and regular volunteer and staff talks, covering a wide range of topics relating to the Collection.
