Experience our fashion-themed drop-in activities in a quieter way before the museum opens to the public. Sessions run from 9am-10am (last entry 9.45am) and are limited to four accompanied children.
Ideal for those who would find the busy nature of our drop-in sessions uncomfortable, these sessions offer a relaxed environment. Please book a space for each accompanied child attending.
Please note, activities on Tuesday and Thursday will be the same each week.
Week 1: Setting the Style
Why do we wear what we wear? From simple and practical to colourful and detailed, create your own designs to mix and match for a paper person.
Week 2: Fibre to Fabric
Join us to discover the cloth-making history of the town and have a go at making your own simple woven work.
Week 3: Shapes and Colour Palettes
Explore the expression of power and meaning in colour and pattern, then blend ideas to create our own pattern colour wheel.
Week 4: Function to Fashion
Join us to explore how status can be expressed in our clothing and have a go at making your own epaulettes.
Week 5: Finishing Touches
Explore a range of accessories and make your own plaited belt and paper buckle to finish off your look.
