Family Day

Join us for a family take-over of the Painted Hall!  

On the third Sunday of the month, we’ll be setting up activity stations throughout the hall to encourage every member of your family to get stuck in, play, create and learn together. So, whether you’re an artist in training, a construction maverick, history-lover or can never resist a costume, there’s plenty of fun to be had.  

Alongside our activities inside the hall, we will be running free drop-in activities in additional spaces linked to the month’s theme. To kick start, we’ll be running free crafts in the Painted Hall Café. More information
