Date:
2011-05-11The Harry Potter themed event will come alive with magical science experiments, a spell trail around the galleries, magician fun as well as a visit from two feathery friends from the Welsh Hawking Centre - a European Owl, the same breed as Harry’s very own Hedwig, and a baby Snowy Owl.
The wizardry night-time fun will include creative crafts where visitors can make their very own origami chalice and owl-inspired popcorn box. They will also get the chance to build KNEX constructions of wizard hats and wands and have a go at controlling Underground Ernie, an interactive model railway.
