From family STEAM learning to interactive exhibitions. There's something for everyone.

This makes That with These – Wind up engines

Let’s be curious!

This summer we are introducing our exciting new family session, This makes That with These. This session invites you to satisfy your curiosity and use your creativity. Look inside and see how things work and create your own inventions with our challenge kits.

A few of our oldest cars have engines that were wound up with a starter handle. In this session we will find out a little more about these and other engines and then have a go at making a mini engine to take home.

Drop in | £3 per child (Cash only)

Location – Community Space (Exhibition 7, Black Taxi) | Lunch break 12.30pm - 1.30pm

Designed for age 5+, but all are welcome
