Drop-in

Get up close and personal with some of our museum artefacts as part of our ‘Please Touch Object Handling’ sessions and investigate what our objects tell us about Summer in the countryside. Then move up a gear, fasten your seat belt and have a go on our VR quad bike experience to explore the virtual countryside. Or for a more serene experience, relax and immerse yourself in a beautiful VR version of our Changing Seasons film.
