What is #MuseumShopSunday?

It’s a day dedicated to getting hands-on with new crafts & skills, as well as discovering more about our local creator community. It celebrates the unique & exciting shops which play a vital role in helping charity attractions to survive and thrive.

What's happening @spacecentre?

We’re working with local independent makers to host a special festive market with a hands-on twist. Families can take part in maker sessions and buy all-important seasonal gifts that will help support local independent makers.

Why are we taking part in #MuseumShopDay?

We’re really proud of our local creator community and this event allows us to celebrate their work whilst also offering visitors the chance to take part in some fantastic hands-on workshops.
