In the Frame: World Photography Week
To celebrate World Photography Week join us for a range of photography-inspired crafts and store tour.
Make your own shadow puppets, create your own story with them or use your own silhouette to tell a story!
We’ll also take a tour of our unique museum storage facility which preserves and protects Leeds Museums and Galleries collections of over 1.3 million objects.
Please note: the Education space will be kept dark during workshop times in order to complete the crafts.
Sensory quiet spaces available during the workshops – tour of the site also included in the workshops.
This event is give what you can. We don’t want price to be a barrier to a great experience. Simply pick the price you can give when booking your place, and enjoy your visit.
Suggested donation: £5
