Event:Dementia Friendly Activity: Making a Christmas Suncatcher

National Museum Cardiff

Finished

Join us at National Museum Cardiff to make a Christmas Suncatcher, taking inspiration from some of the wonderful objects in our collections such as pieces by Gillian Ayres.

The session involves:

A warm welcome in a dedicated space
A chance to explore and enjoy one of our galleries and our collections
An opportunity to take part in a light craft activity
A warm drink and a chat

The session will take place within the museum so there are not any long distances to walk. It lasts approximately 2 hours with breaks and refreshments will be provided at the museum café.

Information on accessibility at National Museum Cardiff can be found here.

These opportunities are open to both those living with dementia and those supporting people living with dementia.
