There are half-term activities for all the family at the Fitzwilliam Museum from 23 - 31 May.
All ages can drop-in and draw from 12.00 - 16.00 for free on Wednesday 27 May, with activities inspired by our exhibition of pop art collage prints by Eduardo Paolozzi.
At any time throughout the week activities are available at both entrances from gallery trails to activity packs. Go on a journey through the Museum with the games and puzzles in our Fitz Kits, and discover the amazing types of objects from our Treasured Possessions show with our new kit A Box of Treasures. Story Starters satchels contain picture books and activities from ages 2-6, and even the tiniest babies can enjoy our Baby Play Mat available at the Courtyard Entrance.
On Saturday 23 May walk through the galleries and travel through time linking artefacts to places all over the world. Artist Caroline Wendling will help you create your very own map of the Museum using drawing and collage. Mapping the Museum is available to book for children aged 5-7. We only have two places left - book now on 01223 332904.
With nine exhibitions and displays throughout the Museum there is something for everyone to discover - from the incredible Michelangelo bronzes, to sparkling gold boxes, our acclaimed major exhibition Treasured Possessions, and the moving, tweeting bird installation by contemporary artist Xu Bing.
If you miss out on a visit during half-term, the Cambridge Cats ‘Fitz and Will’ are visiting for a free storytelling and drawing session on Saturday 6 June ... Image copyright Martin Bond
