The Museum's upcoming events includes a lively programme of talks which expand and further interpret both the exhibitions and the social history of the city and province. Speakers and performers for our informal lectures, floor talks, music and poetry events are knowledgeable, talented, interesting and interested, often with a touch of quirkiness throwing unexpected light on their subject.
Holiday Programmes
At all times, and particularly during school holidays, pen-and-pencil
quizzes and puzzles are available for children and families. These are
especially designed to stimulate imagination, observation and knowledge, and
above all to be fun!
