A museum is so much more than its objects and displays. They are a place where people can discover and connect with new ideas. Family Activities are an essential part of this as they offer families the opportunity to use their creativity to explore the important topics of the museums together.
By helping to facilitate these activities you are helping us to make a lasting impression on young people.
What’s involved?
This is creative role where you will help families in a variety of activities based on the themes and ideas in the museums. These activities are simple and easy to pick up, but a family’s experience is greatly enhanced when they are guided by a friendly volunteer.
Activities change to reflect the diversity of our amazing collections but some family favourites have included baking Victorian foods, creating a giant snake and ladders board with families and helping children to take fingerprints.
Is this role for me?
This role is perfect for somebody who is friendly and enjoys helping others learn and discover.
You don’t need to be the most artistic person but should be open to learning new skills and be keen to encourage creativity in others.
