Also join us for some family fun, traditional halloween traditions. Have you ever wondered where some of our Halloween traditions come from?

Throughout October Half Term (22nd October – 30th October 2022) we will be running drop in workshops where you can learn about and have a go at 3 historical Halloween and Samhain traditions.

You will be making:

– Salt dough skulls for our ancestors
– Animal masks to scare away malicious spirits
– Fire themed paper lanterns

Activities are running from 10:30 – 15:30 in our learning centre (above the museum). Suitable for children aged 2+, tickets are required for all children over 2+ and they must be accompanied by an adult at all times (adults do not need a ticket).

This event is a drop in session, with the ticket you can attend anytime between 10:30am until 15:00pm. The family learning activity will close at 15:30pm.

Pre booking for these workshops is encouraged to help us manage capacity. Tickets are £2 per child (adults go free with children). Book your tickets now by visiting –
