Range of drawing materials
Join us for relaxed family activities for neurodiverse children and their families at the Oriental Museum on Thursday 5 September 5-7pm.
Although the museum is open to the public, the galleries are generally quieter at this time, and the drawing activities take place in a room away from the main galleries with a reduced number of people taking part.
A range of drawing materials and fun challenges will be available.
The Oriental Museum galleries will be open for you to explore, and there are lots of self-led resources available including storybooks for a range of ages, toys and a cushion-filled chill out room.
A limited number of sensory bags will be available too, which contain ear defenders,
These activities are generally suitable for children and young people aged 5 - 11 years, but older children are welcome. All children must be accompanied by an adult.
Places are FREE, but limited, so booking is essential.
Each ticket is for a family group of up to 2 children and 2 adults.
If you book a ticket and later find you cannot attend, please email oriental.museum@durham.ac.uk or telephone 0191 334 5691 to cancel your booking so we can make the ticket available for another family.
