As well as great temporary exhibitions, there is a host of free activities during school holidays, and on some Saturdays, at Nuneaton Museum & Art Gallery.
The Museum has pre-school storytelling sessions and the chance to get hands on with objects from our collection.
Cllr Brady Hughes, Portfolio Holder for Leisure and Health, said:
“This is a great programme of activities for families throughout the entire summer holidays.
“It can be difficult to keep children busy during the summer holidays, but these sessions will be a great source of entertainment.
“There are activities going on throughout the year at our museum as well as some wonderful exhibitions and displays and I urge everyone to visit this excellent facility.’’
