About Marvellous Makers

Get stuck in and let your creativity run wild at our Marvellous Maker Sessions – weekly, hands-on creative workshops for all ages!

Each Sunday step into a buzzing creative space with different activities every week. Whether you're building wild sculptures from recycled materials, drawing from real-life taxidermy, creating huge collaborative floor artworks, or making your own wearable badge art – there's always something new to explore!

Big, bold, and sometimes a bit messy, these sessions are perfect for curious minds who want to try something different – all large-scale, hands-on and totally free.

All activities are inspired by the galleries and exhibitions you’ll find around the museum – so after you’ve made your masterpiece, go explore what sparked it.
