Event:Farewell...For Now!

National Slate Museum

Information

26 October–3 November 2024
Cost Free
Suitability ALL

As the National Slate Museum closes its doors for a period of exciting redevelopment, join us for a  week of events to say goodbye … for now, make the most of the museum one last time (for a while) and discover what is coming next! 

From guided tours explaining what we will conserve, improve and transform over the next two years and how we'll be working with the area’s varied communities to develop the range of stories we tell onsite to how we're preparing to safely move thousands of objects offsite for safe storage while we carry out the work to a look behind the scenes at some of our most interesting objects - there's a lot to enjoy! You can even come and enjoy craft events and meet a brand Gwyneth - our brand new Museum character - alongside our regular favourites, Hannah and Leusa! 

Take a look at the programme below:
