Mini Messy Museum

Held over five consecutive Wednesday mornings is our NEW art and craft session, Mini Messy Museum, for 2 to 5 years.

At each session, you and your child will take part in a fun and simple art and craft themed around a museum object, and then you’ll have the opportunity to do a self-led gallery visit (treasure hunt) to find the museum object linked to the morning’s art and craft.

We will use a variety of art and craft materials, such as paint sticks, paper/card and modelling clay, to make something you can take home and display.

The five art and craft sessions will be themed around objects in the permanent and special exhibitions.

West Berkshire Museum | 10.15am – 10.45am | £12 for five sessions | Pre-booked

Please dress for mess, although disposable aprons will be available. You are welcome to bring a reusable one.

Session dates: 25 February and 4, 11, 18, 25 March 2026.
