This Summer Holiday we welcomed more than 1,300 visitors to the museum to take part in our free family events! With Queen Elizabeth II set to take over Queen Victoria as Britain’s longest reigning monarch, we decided to explore some of the key events, inventions and traditions of Victoria’s reign!

Our visitors got their crafty hats on, creating all manner of fantastic things!

If you joined us this Summer, share some of your pictures with us on Facebook or Twitter. We’d love to see what you got up to during your visit!
