Get to know the Greek gods this half-term...
Hermes the messenger god has had a bit of a mishap, and he needs your help. Explore the Cast Gallery and help Hermes track down his missing missives and find their correct recipients amongst the statues. Along the way you'll discover the colourful characters of Mount Olympus and get hands on with divinely-inspired crafts like Ares' armour-making and weaving like Athena. It's a fun-filled afternoon, perfect for families with curious kids and myth-loving adults alike.
Can you be the hero of the gods and help Hermes deliver all his messages?
This event is free and family-friendly. No need to book, just drop in.
