Venue: Torquay Museum
FREE / Drop in anytime
Suitable for all
Encounters Arts and British Museum are working in partnership to bring a very special event to the Ageing Well festival. From 1pm to 4pm you can drop in at Torquay Museum and experience handling valuable objects from the British Museum collection. You can also work with artists to create an object to take home or input into the larger community makes that will be going on display in Torquay Museum as part of the Museum of Now show later in the year.
Museum of Now is a partnership project between Encounters and Torquay Museum engaging people in Torquay in using traditional crafts skills to make objects that tell a story about the local natural world and living in Torquay today.
The objects created form part of an exhibition at Torquay Museum from Oct to Dec 2015.
