We are looking to improve what we offer families and young people on a visit to the museum. This is your opportunity to be our specialists for the day! During the visit we will gather your ideas, do a tour of Paradise Mill and try out different styles of weaving.
The visit will last 2.5 hours with a break for a snack and drink.
Suitable for children ages 6 and over. Children need to be accompanied by an adult at all times during the visit.
