Fun and goosebumps guaranteed for families at After Dark half-term event

Wisbech and Fenland Museum's half-term event, After Dark at the Museum, will be returning after requests from the public.

On October 28, from 4pm to 7pm, families can explore darkened galleries with a torch.

There will also be several ‘craft and exploration activities’ to try.

This year, Fens Falconry will be taking part, bringing various birds to the museum.

Visitors can meet a 'wise woman' to learn about fenland medicines, craft boggart slime, and learn about witch bottles, keepsafes, and 'familiars.'

Fancy dress is encouraged, and visitors should bring their own torch.

The fee for children is £3.50, paid at the door, but parents or guardians and children under five-years-old go free.

This event is aimed at families with a child/children aged six to 11.

Children under five cannot take part in the boggart slime activity.

More information Wood be had via wisbechmuseum.org.uk.
