Our Little Explorers gallery has re-opened! Drop-in to the gallery during opening hours to explore our interactives, dress-up in costume, read a book, or try a puzzle.
Our dedicated family gallery is aimed at parents and carers with children aged 3-8 years old.
Organised groups e.g. nurseries, play-centres etc. will only be admitted to the gallery if they have pre-booked through our education team.
There may occasionally be a wait for the gallery if an educational session is taking place.
