History Craft
Workshops at the Museum
Want to help your pupils get more creative whilst learning more about your history topic? We have just the thing!
In these workshops, we use objects from the Museum’s collections as inspiration for a craft project which your pupils take home as a unique souvenir of their visit.
Workshop topics currently include:
Toy Making
Stone Age Jewellery
Bronze Age Beakers
Roman Mosaics
Anglo Saxon Braiding and Weaving
Anglo Saxon Embroidery
Tudor Stained Glass
Victorian Embroidery
World War One: Princess Mary Boxes
World War Two: Make Do and Mend
World War Two: Dig for Victory
Workshops are available Tuesday to Friday and run between 10am to 11:30am, and cost £4.50 per student. They can be adapted for all Key Stages.

Please note:
– Workshops often take place in our temporary exhibition space. Please check our public Google Calendar or call the Museum on 020 8332 1141 to see if a workshop is taking place when you plan to visit that may limit your access to the exhibition.
– We occasionally have to close at short notice due to volunteer illness. Please check here or our public Google Calendar for latest news and updates.
– At present there is no step free access from street level to the Ground Floor of the Old Town Hall whilst we wait for Richmond Council to repair the lift at the Disabled Entrance. We apologise for the inconvenience this causes whilst the Council carries out these repairs.
