Event:Dementia Friendly Activity: Pubs and Crafts

St Fagans National Museum of History

Join us at St Fagans National Museum of History as we visit our latest building to be rebuilt at the Museum, the famous Cardiff pub, the Vulcan Hotel. 

During the visit we will explore some objects from our pub-related handling collection and enjoy a simple craft activity together.

The Vulcan Pub from Newtown, Cardiff, at St Fagans (museum.wales)

The session involves:

  • A warm welcome in a dedicated space
  • A chance to explore and enjoy our outdoor environment, galleries and 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 3 hours with breaks and refreshments provided.

Information on accessibility at museum can be found here.

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