Event:Dementia Friendly activity: Ffasiwn

National Museum Cardiff

Join us at National Museum Cardiff to visit the temporary exhibition, Ffasiwn. This photography exhibition challenges what Fashion is and features images shaped by young people from across the Valleys. Following the gallery visit, there will be a gentle craft activity inspired by what we’ve seen.

The session involves:

  • A warm welcome in a dedicated space
  • A warm drink and a chat
  • An opportunity to enjoy one of our temporary exhibitions

The session will take place within the museum so there are not any long distances to walk. It lasts approximately 2.5 hours with breaks and refreshments will be provided. 

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

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